Regional Training Courses
RIMES training program targets a diverse audience, from development workers, resource managers, disaster risk managers, forecasters, planners, administrators, and policymakers. RIMES experts and scientists conduct regular and tailored courses, based on their extensive experience in the fields of numerical weather prediction, hydrology, early warning, disaster risk reduction, climate risk management, and development.
RIMES Training Program
The Master Plan 2010-2014 of the Regional Integrated Multi-Hazard Early Warning System for Africa and Asia (RIMES), prepared by the RIMES Executive Board through a series of consultations with Member States and collaborating countries, identified capacity building on end-to-end early warning as critical for providing actionable warning information towards forearmed, forewarned, and resilient communities. This involves technology development and transfer, training, and demonstrations to address gaps in risk knowledge, hazard observation and warning, communicating risks, and response capabilities.
RIMES training program, hence, targets a diverse audience, from development workers, resource managers, disaster risk managers, forecasters, planners, administrators, and policymakers. Training courses are designed and offered to cater to country- and project-specific needs, as well as needs by various professionals on thematically based subject matter.
