Early Warning Systems. The EMSC referred to the specific features of the European Warning System (EWS) that operated under the auspices of the Agreement. Substantial investment would be required to automate the current system with a view to the development of early-warning systems. The European Centre on Urban Risks (CERU) in Lisbon described its experience in the field of tsunamis. The ECNTRM in Moscow, the European Centre of Technological Safety (TESEC) in Kyiv and the ECTR in Yerevan also gave details of their activities and their proposals concerning the United Nations’ objectives. The Secretariat noted that several centres could be involved in the measures to be taken concerning the establishment of early-warning systems in the Euro-Mediterranean region and that the Agreement could offer support in connection with arranging projects.

Early Warning Systems. An example that will certainly be followed in the next years by other directives covering other W&C induced hazards (Note that even the last IPCC Fifth Assessment Report, in the section dealing with Europe -Chapter 23-, explicitly quotes the commitment of the EU in developing early warning systems as best practices for disaster risk reduction and risk management, making explicit reference to research produced by FP7 projects; x.x. Xxxxxx et al. 2014 or Xxxxxxx et al., 2011). In conclusion, to face the challenge of the W&C extreme events, it becomes crucial to develop tools to support decision makers in real-time coordination of the emergency management operations capitalizing on the advances in observation systems and in forecasting models able to anticipate the phenomena triggering these events and their impacts. 1 Disaster comes from old Greek “dis aster” meaning “bad star”, in the sense of a calamity blamed on the position of planets.
