SOFF as a foundational element
SOFF is a foundational element and delivery mechanism of the UN Secretary General’s Early Warnings for All Initiative. Improving the availability of basic weather and climate observations from the most data sparse areas is essential for weather forecasts, early warning systems and climate information services that save lives and livelihoods as well as protect property across the whole globe. The lack of such observations limits countries’ capacity to adapt to climate change and build resilience.
