Despite major investments, why do many EWS still fall short in reaching the people most at risk?

A new report from @EarlyActionREAP and the @ZCRAlliance explores what’s missing to make EWS more inclusive, sustainable & people-centered.

We were delighted to co-host with @PlanVietnam & @zfoundation at #GPDRR25 and welcome the Vietnamese delegation led by Vice Minister Nguyen Hoang Hiep.

It was a great chance to share @ZCRAlliance’s work in #Vietnam and strengthen #resilience & #DRR efforts nationwide.

[Zurich Climate Resilience Alliance @ZCRAlliance]

Strong governance structures and well-coordinated institutional frameworks can enhance the effectiveness of #EarlyWarningSystems. @ISETInt is partnering with local governments and provincial agencies in Vietnam to make such systems more cohesive, inclusive and sustainable.

[Zurich Climate Resilience Alliance @ZCRAlliance]

For #EarlyWarningSystems to save lives and build resilience, they must be rooted in what communities need, ensuring that the diverse needs and concerns of different groups shape the development of these systems and support the achievement of “early warnings for all”. #GP2025

[ISET International @ISETInt]

In recent years, floods in #Hue, #Vietnam exposed risks from both #climatechange & rapid urbanization.
ISET mapped high-water marks from recent floods to fill data gaps & support better planning and early warnings. #EWS #CRMC @ZCRAlliance

Understanding the specific hazards and vulnerabilities affecting a population is vital to mitigating the risks communities face. @planphilippines worked with young people to take a proactive role in identifying and assessing their exposure to risks.

Climate hazards are on the rise, but a people-centred approach to Early Warning Systems holds the key to protecting communities and ensuring a safer future for all.
