  1. The Emergency Capacity Building (ECB) Project Bangladesh Consortium International Learning Conference “ECB Inter-Active” Expanding Learning from other ECB consortia and other actors • S.H.M. Fakhruddin • Team Leader- Hydrology • fakhruddin@rimes.int • www.shmfakhruddin.com Free Powerpoint Templates

  2. Discussion Topics • Cyclone Early warning systems in Bangladesh • Early warning systems in Niger • Disaster Response Engagement Protocol in Indonesia

  3. RIMES Member States RIMES is an international, intergovernmental institution, owned and managed by its Member States, for building capacities in the generation and application of early warning information

  4. Purpose and objectives • Purpose: Provide early warning services for enhanced preparedness, response, and mitigation of natural hazards, according to differing needs and demands of its Member States • Objectives: • Facilitate establishment and maintenance of core regional observation and monitoring networks and ensure data availability for early warning • Provide regional tsunami watch within the framework of UNESCO Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission (IOC) • Support National Meteorological and Hydrological services for providing localized hydro-meteorological risk information within the framework of the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) • Enhance warning response capacities at all levels (national to community) within each national early warning framework

  5. EW System

  6. EW System Structure Detection Subsystem Monitoring, detection, data Assessment, data analysis, prediction Management Subsystem Risk Assessment, interpretation, communication Response Subsystem Interpretation, confirmation and response

  7. Reasons for Warning Failure • Warning not understood:  • Warning understood, but ignored: • Warning understood, not ignored, but no response:

  8. Gaps • Regulatory framework for warning • Stakeholders involvement and roles Observation/ monitoring • Aging and insufficient observation and data communication facilities Data analysis • Data sharing among agencies • Numerical prediction capability • Skilled human resource • Capacity to make use of new generation forecasts Prediction Risk assessment Potential impact assessment • Local level potential impact assessment not done • Language • Localized, relevant Warning formulation Preparation of response options • Institutional mechanism, linkages • SOPs • Redundant communication systems • Reach to special groups Dissemination to at-risk communities • Public awareness • Communication of forecast limitations • Lack of trainers/ facilitators • Resources to respond to warning Emergency response plans Public education/ awareness Mitigation programs Community response
