The Mozambican Ministry of Communications and Digital Transformation has launched an Integrated Platform for Situational Impact Monitoring (PRISM), which enables the monitoring of climatic shocks online for subsequent analysis and decision-making in risk reduction actions. It also is aimed at reducing barriers to accessing the country’s climate information, given that it is free of charge, 24 hours a day.
According to Nilsa Miquidade, the Ministry’s permanent secretary, the system will enable people to access climate information and local vulnerability, taking into account that the country is the victim of extreme weather events, which in recent years have become more frequent and more intense. She explained that currently, the National Meteorological Institute is facing challenges in accessing real-time climate or meteorological information that allows it to intervene in places where disasters are taking place.
