M. Samuel Nartey George, Minister for Communication, Digital Technology and Innovations, Ghana, spoke at the high-level event on the #EarlyWarningsForAll initiative convened by WMO. “African countries account for 35% of global weather, climate and water-related fatalities. Yet, only 40% of this population has access to early warning systems.” To learn more about WMO’s role in the EW4All initiative, click the link below 👇 🔗 https://bit.ly/3J4saJO #EarlyWarningsForAlll #ScienceforAction #WMO75

🤖 The development of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies has been remarkable, however WMO considers it essential that the emergence of AI does not widen the technological gap. Recognizing the importance of advancing AI, WMO has convened major conferences throughout the past year, which brought together diverse stakeholders to discuss the future of AI in Earth system sciences. On 21 October, the outcomes from these conferences will be discussed during the Extraordinary Congress, and a strategic direction in this rapidly evolving field will be explored. 📺 Tune in 21 Oct, 9:00 - 10:30 CEST, to watch these discussions live: 🔗 https://bit.ly/3WaqGAN #WMO75 #ScienceForAction

When the United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres launched the #EarlyWarningsForAll initiative in 2022, the goal was bold yet simple...    ...by 2027, every person on Earth should be protected by life-saving early warning systems.     💪 Three years later, this vision has transformed into a global movement that is saving lives, shaping policy and strengthening resilience.    Much progress has been made, but there still more to do.

For 75 years, WMO has transformed science into action: action that save lives, action for socioeconomic prosperity, action that builds long-term resilience. How? By gathering and sharing all the scientific data required for sound decision-making: ✅ to prevent a hazard becoming a disaster ✅ to inform infrastructure planning ✅ to prepare for an anticipated upsurge in vector or water-borne diseases ✅ to guide aeroplanes and ships on the safest, most efficient route. The examples are endless – and demand is increasing. As we celebrate our 75th anniversary, we also look ahead to the future - a future in which Artificial Intelligence is set to transform weather prediction and policy.
