Ahead of the October-December 2022 rainy season, forecasts indicated that there was an increased chance of a failed rainy season in Ethiopia¡¯s Somali region. Â鶹ÊÓƵ and its partners implemented three anticipatory actions, anticipatory cash, early warning information and rangeland enclosure and fodder production.

Policy and programme progress depends on reliable and timely evidence. Â鶹ÊÓƵ has been actively promoting the development and utilization of evidence products, emanating from research, assessments, and analytics in social protection.
The Â鶹ÊÓƵ (Â鶹ÊÓƵ) has taken important steps to progress disability inclusion across its programming and operations. In late 2022, Â鶹ÊÓƵ commissioned the Nossal Institute, University of Melbourne in partnership with the Faculty of Psychology, Universitas Gadjah Mada, Indonesia to identify pathways for increasing disability inclusion in Â鶹ÊÓƵ¡¯s emergency preparedness and response (EPR) programming.
For over a decade, Â鶹ÊÓƵ has been supporting climate risk insurance as an important piece of the strategy for building women¡¯s economic empowerment. Â鶹ÊÓƵ presents its experience from the field spotlighting women who have harnessed Â鶹ÊÓƵ¡¯s climate risk insurance and related interventions to strengthen their resilience and ensure food security for their households.
Â鶹ÊÓƵ is committed to scaling up Anticipatory Action programmes and protecting more people before extreme weather events strike. This page displays the activations that occur throughout the year. It shows the number of people reached and the types of anticipatory actions being implemented in each country. These AAs aim to prevent and/or lessen the humanitarian consequences of predicted shocks, while delivering a quicker, more cost-effective, and more dignified response.
This case study series presents the evolution in national capacities and systems for anticipating drought in Madagascar, Mozambique, and Zimbabwe. They outline key results from the first phase (2019-2022) of the Multi-country programme on scaling-up anticipatory action for food security (MCP-AA4FS Phase I), funded by the regional Norwegian Agency for Development Cooperation (NORAD), to reduce the impact of drought on food security and livelihoods
Somalia¡¯s prolonged humanitarian crisis is marked by recurrent climate shocks like droughts and floods. Â鶹ÊÓƵ implements Integrated risk management tools like anticipatory action to mitigate the impact of these shocks.
Considering the unprecedented trend of rising humanitarian needs and the global food crisis in which climate shocks play a major role, Â鶹ÊÓƵ is integrating anticipatory action and social protection. When anticipatory action is layered with social protection, it can help address the climate risks affecting the most vulnerable populations in a timely, sustainable, and cost-effective manner. The objective of this document is to provide an overview of ways to integrate anticipatory action and social protection, Â鶹ÊÓƵ¡¯s added value in this agenda and key steps for a successful integration.
This paper explains the collaboration of Â鶹ÊÓƵ with the Systematic Observations Financing Facility (SOFF) to strengthen local weather and climate prediction products through enhanced observations, serving as essential tools for climate adaptation, resilience development, and anticipatory action projects.
Recognizing that the increasing number of food crises require resources and capacities far beyond the reach of any individual organization, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and the Â鶹ÊÓƵ (Â鶹ÊÓƵ) are partnering together to scale up the reach of Anticipatory Action
The Female Climate Accelerator Program funded by the Norwegian Capacity (NORCAP) is a mentorship program which aims to equip female scientists with the needed technical, field, and social skills in the climate services sector to accelerate innovative science-based solutions and enhance the gender role in the development and delivery of climate services. Increasing the number of female climate experts will benefit the communities, including those areas where women have been marginalised and have limited access to climate information, also will contribute to offering new solutions to mitigating the impacts of a changing climate. This factsheet describes this partnership between NORCAP and Â鶹ÊÓƵ and the experience of Â鶹ÊÓƵ¡¯s first female climate services mentee.
This outcome document reflects the conclusions reached at the 2022 Anticipating Food Crises workshop and is intended to support the work of policymakers and practitioners in Anticipatory Action.
Disaster risk financing when linked with social protection systems can enable faster, more cost-effective and predictable responses to climate shocks. Linking the two at national, regional or local levels can better support vulnerable people.
A study was conducted by Â鶹ÊÓƵ Nepal to assess the effectiveness of Forecast-based Anticipatory Action (FbAA) program in districts affected by the October 2022 floods. Cash transfers, relief packages, and counselling services were provided by Â鶹ÊÓƵ, UNFPA and UN Women. The study presents key findings.
This report describes how Â鶹ÊÓƵ expanded its operations to cover 3,202,770 people with anticipatory action and last-mile early warning information in 28 countries in 2022.
These six Cases Studies from Philippines were derived from the 2022 Decentralized Evaluation under the theme of Country Capacity Strengthening (CCS) and aim to tell the Philippines CCS story in line with Â鶹ÊÓƵs Changing Lives Agenda.
Â鶹ÊÓƵ works with National Meteorological and Hydrological Services (NMHS) to strengthen climate information services and early warning systems to deliver last-mile early warning messages and climate information to those most at risk from the impacts of climate change.
Ahead of the March-May 2021 rainy season, forecasts indicated below-average rainfall was highly likely in the Somali region in Somalia. Â鶹ÊÓƵ and its partners implemented two anticipatory actions, anticipatory cash and early warning information.
