Early Warning Conference II areas of work
1)   Better integration of early warning into development processes and
     public policies
2)   Improved data availability for investigating, forecasting/predicting
     and managing risks on different time scales
3)   Improved capacities and strengthened early warning systems,
     particularly in developing countries
4)   Development of people-centred warning systems
5)   Mechanisms for sustaining the early warning dialogue and
     supporting the development and implementation of a programme
Recommendations from EWC III
Recommendation 1:   Develop a globally comprehensive early
                    warning system, rooted in existing early
                    warning systems and capacities
Recommendation 2:   Build national people-centred early warning
                    systems
Recommendation 3:   Fill the main gaps in global early warning
                    capacities
Recommendation 4:   Strengthen the scientific and data
                    foundations for early warning
Recommendation 5:   Develop the institutional foundations for a
                    global early warning system
Platform for the Promotion of Early Warning (PPEW)
   Overall secretariat’s functions including support and coordination
    for the IEWP with guidance provided by the IEWP Advisory Group
   Partnership and alliance building
   Advocacy and promotion of early warning and the IEWP
   Development of web tools, clearing house and repository for
    knowledge and information
   Mobilizing resources for the IEWP
   Monitoring progress in the implementation of early warning and the
    IEWP
The Framework for the Multi-Hazard Global Early Warning System
SG Report A/62/340   Global Survey of Early Warning Systems
September 14, 2007

 Request that the ISDR secretariat, in collaboration with relevant actors,
 undertake an assessment of the financing of early warning systems

 Involve the major operational agencies through the International Early
 Warning Programme
 Request the ISDR secretariat to facilitate, in cooperation with all United
 Nations system entities concerned, the development of globally
 comprehensive early warning systems, rooted in and composed of Member
 States systems, capacities and networks.

Benefits and Added Values of IEWP
IEWP provides added values to its partners by building on their on-going
activities on early warning.
Common agendas
   More effective, wider information flow
   Better focus on integrated people-centred early warning systems
   Wider recognition of early warning’s role in meeting development
    goals
   Systematically demonstrate the financial perspective of early warning
    (e.g. good for investment)
Shortcomings of the End-to-End System
• Focus tends to remain on the hazard
• Different hazards are typically dealt with by separate
  institutions
• Dominance of the expert can lead to difficulties
• Role of research and knowledge from outside is often
  not acknowledged.
• Little engagement or empowerment of those at risk in the
  design and operation
• Few systematic mechanisms to improve the system.
• Weak public engagement and recognition

  • 14. Benefits and Added Values of IEWP IEWP provides added values to its partners by building on their on-going activities on early warning. Common agendas  More effective, wider information flow  Better focus on integrated people-centred early warning systems  Wider recognition of early warning’s role in meeting development goals  Systematically demonstrate the financial perspective of early warning (e.g. good for investment)
  • 15. Shortcomings of the End-to-End System • Focus tends to remain on the hazard • Different hazards are typically dealt with by separate institutions • Dominance of the expert can lead to difficulties • Role of research and knowledge from outside is often not acknowledged. • Little engagement or empowerment of those at risk in the design and operation • Few systematic mechanisms to improve the system. • Weak public engagement and recognition
  • 16. Key Ingredients The right to know Multidimensional analysis Investment Build on existing local structures Build on existing and appropriate information systems Local ownership Building leadership Accountability to act Local knowledge of indicators Schools People Centered EWS Reliable Reach the entire population even in remote areas Part of a chain
