Africa Satellite Navigation Conference
Satellite Navigation: A Catalyst for Africa's Development
The pre-conference on Leveraging GNSS Technology for Enhanced Multi-Hazard Early Warning Systems in Africa will explore how satellite navigation systems can be applied to improve disaster resilience. This aligns with the UN Early Warning for All (EW4ALL) initiative, the UN 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, and the African Union's Agenda 2063, aiming to reduce disaster risks and enhance community preparedness across the continent.
Recent advancements in GNSS technology, data integration, and analysis will be discussed, emphasizing their critical role in enhancing the accuracy and timeliness of early warnings for various hazards. Key themes include technological innovation, capacity building, and community engagement, all vital for effective disaster risk management.
