The Multi-Hazard Early Warning System Design & Implementation Center (MHEWC) aims to become a global platform for research, design, development, and implementation of the Multi-Hazard Early Warning System (MHEWS) at the country level.
Multi-hazard early warning system (MHEWS) sounds big.., but we’ve just begun our journey… We support new installations, diagnose the operational capacity of existing systems, and support upgrading the country-level NMHEWC integrated system to be essentially functional as an interoperable, integrated online system. This geospatial platform establishes the interconnectedness of all relevant climate-vulnerable sector departments, diverse stakeholders, value chain operators, and frontline vulnerable communities, enabling them to interact with an integrated system.
The MHEWC system can support the functionalization of integrated & interoperable(virtual & integrated) national hydrometeorological services (NHMS) for weather impact forecasting (by the relevant sector department), operational forecasting, common alerting, event situation updates, and the generation of classified alerts for elements.
The integrated NMHEWC aims to promote a digital (online) local risk management governance system (sector department integrated) that can improve institutional coordination in climate & multi-hazard exposure, risk & vulnerability assessment,(elements specific) risk repository development, and removing barrier of data exchange mechanisms across all administrative levels of local governments, and extensively provide tailored last-mile, multi-stakeholder-led risk governance management system.
