🚨 In Ghana’s climate-vulnerable north, FAO, with funding from Canada and Norway, is partnering with government to strengthen early warning systems & anticipatory action. Helping communities act before disaster strikes. 🌾🌦️👩🏿‍🌾 #ClimateAction #EarlyWarning #ResilientGhana

[FAO in Emergencies @FAOemergencies]

Increasing disasters are disrupting agrifood systems, hitting vulnerable populations hardest.

@FAO prioritizes disaster risk reduction to build resilience.

Scaling up #DisasterRiskReduction and #AnticipatoryAction is key to achieving food security.

[FAO in Emergencies @FAOemergencies]

With climate risks rising and budgets tightening, scaling up #AnticipatoryAction is a strategic way to save lives today while reducing future humanitarian needs.
