- I should advocate for a multi sector anticipatory action response plan in my country
- The solutions of the past are not the solutions of the future
- We have inclusive approaches and examples – we need to institutionalise inclusivity for EWS now.

- Bringing together humanitarian/development communities with national systems
- Development of Multi-Risk EWS with an intersectional and inclusive gender approach

- [In French]: Cooperation, cooperation, cooperation! With everyone, at all levels, 360 degrees.
- Collaboration at all levels with all stakeholders to achieve EW4All
- Co- development of early warning withe people most at risk is crucial
