Early Warnings for All

In 2006, the former Platform for the Promotion of Early Warning set up by the former International Strategy for Disaster Reduction (PPEW) introduced the notion of people-centred, efficient early warning systems, and defined four elements of people-centred early warning.30 Figure 2.2 presents these four elements proposed by PPEW to be considered in the design and operation of people-centred early warning systems. When taken into consideration, these four elements allow for the transformation of any technical early warning system into a people-centred system.
