🌊 In the Philippines, data isn’t just collected — it saves lives.

By combining losses and damages data, machine learning, and historical typhoon records, the Philippines has developed one of the world’s most innovative impact-based early warning systems.

These systems use over 60 historical typhoon events to predict how future storms will affect communities — triggering pre-agreed funding that enables local authorities to take preventive action before disaster strikes.

⚡ This is how data transforms disaster management: from reacting after the storm to acting before it hits.

Learn how connecting hazard monitoring data with real-world impacts is helping protect lives and livelihoods across the Philippines — and setting a model for resilience worldwide.
