Early Warning Systems and Their Role in Disaster Risk Reduction pub ASA SYRR Governance; Risk management; People-centred; Hazard; Exposure; Vulnerability; Impact; Early Warning Systems; Risk In this chapter, we introduce early warning systems (EWS) in the context of disaster risk reduction, including the main components of an EWS, the roles of the main actors and the need for robust evaluation. Management of disaster risks requires that the nature and distribution of risk are understood, including the hazards, and the exposure, vulnerability and capacity of communities at risk. A variety of policy options can be used to reduce and manage risks, and we emphasise the contribution of early warnings, presenting an eight-component framework of people-centred early warning systems which highlights the importance of an integrated and all-society approach. We identify the need for decisions to be evidence-based, for performance monitoring and for dealing with errors and false information. We conclude by identifying gaps in current early warning systems, including in the social components of warning systems and in dealing with multi-hazards, and obstacles to progress, including issues in funding, data availability, and stakeholder engagement. 2022 published Springer 10.1007/978-3-030-98989-7_2 http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-98989-7_2 3417 public Cham 11-46 TRUE 978-3-030-98988-0 Towards the “Perfect” Weather Warning Golding B. no info:eu-repo/semantics/bookPart
