It can be achieved through the transfer of appropriate technology, infrastructure and skills.

The project has five outcomes:

1. Improved hardware and software capacity to monitor extreme weather, climate change and forecast capacity
2. Increased institutional capacity to maintain EWS related infrastructure
3. Increased national capacity to assimilate and forecast climate and environmental information
4. Customized climate and weather information available for national planning and other purposes
5. Increased communication between countries in the context of trans- boundary issues.
