Our agreement with @WMO @UNDP @UNEP will generate crucial information that will expand countries’ preparedness and resilience to climate change.

This partnership also makes the IDB one of the first Multilateral Development Banks to access a UN-administered Multi-Partner Trust rk that MDBs have been doing with the UN and UN agencies to enhance collaboration.

The effectiveness of any early warning system depends on the availability and quality of data.

Unfortunately <10% of the required climate data is available from least developed states & #SIDS. I urge members at the 8th @UN_SOFF steering cmte meeting to help close the data gap.

Today, at #COP28, @RodeKruis & @IFRC held a side event on Water at the Heart of Climate Action.

Proud of our partnership with @RodeKruis @UNDRR @WMO @UN_SOFF aiming at addressing climate-related risks.

Water is life. But too much or too little water can disrupt people's lives.
