In addition to being multi-hazard and end-to-end, to be effective, MHEWS must be people-centred (i.e. meeting the needs of all people). A people-centred MHEWS empowers individuals and communities threatened by hazards to act in sufficient time and in an appropriate manner to reduce the possibility of personal injury and illness, loss of life and damage to property, assets and the environment (WMO, 2018a).
