Algunas sugerencias para UN-SPIDER en la región:
• Incluir en su temática la aplicación de la información espacial para
análisis y estimación de tendencias de vulnerabilidad frente al cambio
climático.
• Considerar el desafío de lograr la diseminación de información satelital a
nivel local, en donde se concentra la riqueza de la gestión de riesgo.
• Considerar la red UN-SPIDER en la región como una Plataforma
temática dentro
de los mecanismos regionales que están ya
implementados.
• La cooperación internacional debería disparar procesos en la región para
la aplicación de la información satelital en la reducción de desastres, luego
se debe asegurar que los Gobiernos se apropien de los sistemas y los
institucionalicen.
• Aprovechar la institucionalidad y esfuerzos ya desarrollados en la región
para Juntar esfuerzos y transferir capacidades en la región y los países.

CIIFEN works for and with the National Institutions in
WCSA related to climate, ocean and disaster risk
reduction activities.
We are convinced that the most effective way to cope El
Niño, climate variability and change impacts is through
the strengthening of regional, national and local
capacities.
CIIFEN progress is reflected in the success of our
strategic partners in each country of WCSA.

CIIFEN has innovated in approaches to engage diverse users
communities and tailor friendly climate information products in
WCSA.
CIIFEN initiatives are aimed to support climate risk management and
also improve preparedness and response.
CIIFEN works on self sustained, simple and participative projects
which really address end users needs and increase local capacities.
