About Workshop
<\/b><\/strong><\/p>

The African Center of Meteorological Applications for Development (ACMAD) and the IGAD Climate Prediction and Applications Centre (ICPAC) in collaboration with the Joint Research Centre (JRC \u2013 EU) are organizing a combined regional and continental capacity building workshops for all the RECs with an aim of strengthening drought monitoring and early warning.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The workshop seeks to bring together technical practitioners from various national institutions mandated and involved in national and regional drought monitoring and management.
The ACMAD and ICPAC have developed African Drought Monitoring and Advisory System (ADMA) and the East Africa Drought Watch (EADW) respectively monitor drought and provide warnings for the member states with the support of the Joint Research Centre of the European Commission.
Launched in 2021, the EADW automatically and routinely monitors drought conditions using a combined bio-physical drought indicator across 11 eastern African countries namely: Burundi, Djibouti, Ethiopia, Eritrea, Kenya, Rwanda, Somalia, South Sudan, Sudan Tanzania, and Uganda.
The ADMA was launched on 2023 and monitors drought for the whole continent. In addition to supporting trans-border drought monitoring and management, the EADW and ADMA are meant to complement existing national drought systems while filling in the gaps for countries with no systems.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Objectives:<\/strong><\/p>

The objective of the capacity building workshop is to:
a) Establish a collective comprehension of drought phenomena and methodologies for
monitoring them, encompassing data, sources, and interpretation.
b) Strengthen the capabilities of regional and national institutions to generate and distribute
drought early warning information and monitor drought using ADMA and EADW.
c) Assess continental, regional, and national user needs to support the improvement of the two
systems<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
