Early Warning Systems (EWS) are proven to be one of the most effective measures for saving lives and minimising losses and harm caused by disasters.


This directory is a collaborative space dedicated to sharing knowledge, tools, and best practices related to EWS. Whether you’re a practitioner, researcher, policymaker, or community leader, you’ll find a wide range of resources here.


We also invite you to contribute: if you have valuable insights, documents, or tools to share, please add them to the directory to help others. Together, we can build more effective early warning systems and resilient communities.
