CDEMA Participating States will soon have at their fingertips a Model National Multi-Hazard Early Warning System (MHEWS) Policy and Adaptation Guide that will provide guidance on the treatment of early warning systems across multiple hazards, the four pillars required for fully integrated systems and the integration of gender. This tool is expected to be available by January, 2020 with the support of consultant Mr. Jeremy Collymore who will undertake extensive consultations with stakeholders at the regional, national, local and sectoral levels as well as with civil society and private sectors organisations to inform policy.
