How do people say 'anticipatory action' in your language?

How do people say 'anticipatory action' around the world? That's what we would like to find out ahead of the 12th Global Dialogue Platform.

To emphasize the global nature of this event, the Anticipation Hub is creating a short video capturing our international partners saying “anticipatory action” in their own native language.

If you would like to contribute, please send us a video that meets the following requirements:

  • You only need to say “anticipatory action” in your chosen language – nothing else! 
  • Record somewhere quiet - and speak slowly and clearly.
  • Record your video as an mp4 file.
  • The video should be recorded in a landscape format, with the dimensions 1280 x 720 (ratio 16:9).
  • Check the sound quality before sending it to us: is it audible? 

Please send your file by 31 August 2024 at anticipation-hub@drk.de (with t.woods@drk.de in cc) and include in your email: 

  • the speaker's name and organization
  • the language being spoken. 

If the file is too large to send by email, please send it by WeTransfer or similar.

The 12th Global Dialogue Platform on Anticipatory Humanitarian Action will take place from 22 to 24 October 2024, in Berlin and online. Register here to receive updates about how to take part.
