The SEWAA Project provides early warning systems to improve decision-making across Eastern Africa.
The region faces droughts, floods, and tropical cyclones that threaten food security, infrastructure, and communities.
Coping with these extreme events requires collective efforts and resilient strategies — driving the need for Anticipatory Actions that preserve community resilience.
Droughts reduce water and food availability, increasing food insecurity across the region
Heavy rains and floods cause infrastructure damage, crop loss, and community displacement
