Ensuring the sustainability of #AnticipatoryAction means creating ownership and capacity at the country level. In #Pakistan, @FAO & provincial gov’t work together to improve the drought early warning system 💪🏼
Relevant & timely forecasts are essential for effective #AnticipatoryAction systems. In Viet Nam, in 2022, forecasts signalled a typhoon approaching and @FAO implemented interventions 48 hours ahead of Typhoon #Noru 🌪️
🚨🌧 Building an #AnticipatoryAction system starts with understanding disaster risk: exposure, vulnerability, hazard and coping capacity. In #Bangladesh, @FAO assessed flash flood risk in #Haor communities and how acting early can protect at-risk farmers' lives and livelihoods.
Extreme weather events strip hard-earned food resources that communities rely on for survival – including crops, fisheries, livestock, and forestry. #AnticipatoryAction can mitigate these impacts. Read all about what it does and how @FAO does it through 2022 #YearInReview👇
