Project ID 2210313021

IOC coordinates four regional tsunami warning systems. An effective tsunami early warning system is achieved when all persons, especially in vulnerable coastal communities are prepared and respond appropriately to Tsunami alerts. When combined with dedicated public preparedness efforts, early warning enables communities to know what to do in case of tsunami. In extreme cases (Palu, Indonesia, 2018, Tonga 2022), there may be insufficient time to produce any public alerts. In these instances, vulnerable communities must be educated and ready to act based only on natural warning signs. The IOC Tsunami programme for the UN Decade of Ocean Sciences for Sustainable Development aims to achieve 100% of at-risk communities to become Tsunami Ready by 2030.
