The scale of destruction caused by the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami pushed the international community to develop the concept of ‘end-to-end, people-centered early’ warning systems. Its goal is to ensure that no one is left behind when disasters strike. This video highlights the four key elements ‘end-to-end, people-centered early’ warning systems: 1) Understanding risk; 2) Detection, monitoring, analysis, and forecasting; 3) Dissemination and communication, and 4) Preparedness and response capabilities.
