WMO Coordination Mechanism (WCM)

The WMO Coordination Mechanism (WCM), a core element of the Early Warnings for All (EW4All) initiative, supports crisis-prone and conflict-affected regions with timely expert advice and situational awareness.

WCM delivers co-designed and tailored solutions to United Nations (UN) and Humanitarian Agencies (HA), curating authoritative weather, climate and water information and expert advice from WMO Members and Centres, advancing early action, enhancing preparedness efforts, and providing crisis support. It also plays an important role in terms of capacity building.

From 2022 to 2025, thanks to the contributions from WMO Members and Centres, UN / HA and Partners, over 500 WCM products (scans and briefings) have supported humanitarian agencies in saving lives and livelihoods (e.g. WCM HydroMet Scans for the Extremely Severe Cyclonic Storm MOCHA in Myanmar / Bangladesh in 2023, and for the earthquake-impacted areas in Myanmar in 2025).

WCM activities have also increased the visibility of WMO Members and Centres within the humanitarian community.  ​
