Weathering the Change

The World Meteorological Organization (WMO) is much more than just weather forecasts. It is a global lifeline—playing a vital role in protecting lives and livelihoods, and strengthening resilience around the world.

Weather, water and climate cross national boundaries. No individual country can tackle the challenges and benefit from opportunities on their own.

WMO sets standards for and coordinates the real- time global sharing of vital meteorological and hydrological data from ground stations, radars, buoys, aircraft, ships, satellites and more. This international collaboration underpins the accuracy and timeliness of global forecasts, protecting lives, infrastructure, and economies.

Discover how investing in WMO is investing in a more resilient world, safeguarding lives, food, water, energy, and health.
