The region of West and Central Africa is currently facing a combination of humanitarian crises of unprecedented complexity and frequency. The regional dialogue platform
on anticipatory action aims to bring together humanitarian actors, governments, regional institutions and communities around a common vision: a better prepared, more resilient West and Central Africa that is capable of responding to crises before they become disasters. Discussions during the platform will focus on two specific objectives:
- Assess the challenges, achievements and opportunities for anticipatory action in West and Central Africa.
- Formulate concrete recommendations for stakeholders working in the field of anticipatory action.
