The Pacific Humanitarian Team (PHT) Anticipatory Action Technical Working Group (AA TWG) serves as a platform to coordinate, promote, and integrate anticipatory action across the disaster risk management and humanitarian cycles in the Pacific Island countries. Established under the PHT, the Working Group is dedicated to mainstream AA through a coordinated, inclusive, and people-centered approach, ensuring optimisation of resources and sustainability. The TWG will enable a paradigm shift from a reactive to a proactive approach ahead of predictable hazards. By providing a collaborative platform, it operationalizes anticipatory action by bridging early warning systems with pre-arranged financing and early actions, advocates for the systematic inclusion of anticipatory approaches in national and regional policies across the 14 Pacific Island countries and strengthens stakeholder capacity to localize these approaches effectively.
