In a groundbreaking initiative, the National Workshop of CREWS Cambodia and Lao PDR Project on Cambodia Risk Profile Results and Technical Trainings on Impact-Based Forecast Modeling launched today in the vibrant city of Phnom Penh. The event witnessed the active participation of esteemed representatives from various ministries and institutions in Cambodia, marking a pivotal moment in advancing climate resilience.
Conducted over two intensive days, the workshop emerged as a collaborative effort between the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) and the CIMA Research Foundation, operating under the umbrella of the Climate Risk and Early Warning Systems (CREWS) Cambodia and Lao PDR project. With unwavering support from the Asian Disaster Preparedness Centre (ADPC), the Ministry of Water Resources and Meteorology (MOWRAM), and the National Committee for Disaster Management (NCDM), the event aimed to unlock the full potential of meteorological expertise.
At the core of the workshop's objectives is the unveiling of the probabilistic risk assessment and risk profile results. The comprehensive insights derived from these assessments will pave the way for informed decision-making in sustainable development planning and the implementation of disaster risk reduction measures. The attendees, representing a spectrum of expertise, engaged in discussions and shared initial feedback and recommendations on utilizing risk maps to fortify the nation against unforeseen challenges.
Addressing the eager participants, H.E. Mrs. Seth Vannareth, Advisor to MOWRAM, expressed optimism about the enriching experience awaiting the trainees. She highlighted the value of the discussions, emphasizing their potential to enhance public governance. The workshop, she asserted, goes beyond mere education; it is an opportunity for active engagement in shaping a resilient future for Cambodia.
Mrs. Vannareth urged participants to delve into the various course sessions, fostering a collective understanding of meteorological intricacies. The discussions, she emphasized, are not just theoretical but serve as a practical platform for cultivating skills that directly contribute to public well-being. As the workshop unfolds, it stands as a testament to the commitment of Cambodia and Lao PDR towards harnessing meteorological insights for the collective good.
In a world where climate-related challenges are increasingly prevalent, the CREWS workshop in Phnom Penh emerges as a beacon of hope. Through collaborative efforts and knowledge exchange, the event sets the stage for a resilient and weather-ready future for Cambodia and Lao PDR. As the meteorological wizards unite, their collective wisdom promises a safer tomorrow for the nations they serve.
