Armenia’s Weather Forecasting Revolution: Navigating Climate Challenges with Innovative Technology
December 22, 2023
Japan considers that the climate crisis is a threat to all humanity and, in cooperation with UNDP, leads countries to accelerate their climate action. In 2021, UNDP launched a new phase of Climate Promise – From Pledge to Impact – aimed at translating NDC targets into concrete action. Japan is the largest supporter of this phase and joins longstanding partners such as Germany, Sweden, the European Union, Spain, and Italy and new partners such as the United Kingdom, Belgium, Iceland, and Portugal to accelerate these efforts.
The photo story is demonstrating the results of the activities initiated by UNDP and financed by the Government of Japan, as a fruitful public-private partnership established with a vital mission to revolutionize and modernize Armenia’s hydro-meteorological observation and forecasting system. The initiative is part of the “Supporting Nationally Determined Contributions Towards Climate Risk Resilience in Armenia” Project, aimed to install and modernize automatic hydrometeorological stations across Armenia and develop a unified data management and early warning system for weather forecasts and monitoring.
