Realising early warnings for all: Innovation and technology in support of risk-informed climate resilience policy and action

The policy brief highlights the importance of early warning systems in supporting risk-informed climate resilience policies and actions. It discusses the joint policy brief by the Technology Executive Committee (TEC) and the Group on Earth Observations (GEO), which emphasizes the role of climate technology policies and scalable technology solutions in enhancing multi-hazard early warning systems (MHEWS).

Key points include:

• The need for countries to integrate MHEWS technologies into their national strategies and plans.
• The importance of investing in multisectoral technology solutions and leveraging international initiatives and public-private partnerships.
• Recommendations for building technical capacity in developing countries and engaging local stakeholders.
• The role of scientific experts and innovators in advancing climate information and disaster risk knowledge
