The World Meteorological Congress, the WMO's ultimate body, is now holding its 19th session, which runs from May 22 to June 2, 2023. It brings together all 193 WMO Member States and Territories.
The Strategic Plan 2024-2027 will be approved by Congress to support the World Meteorological Organization's objective of "by 2030, we see a world where all nations, especially the most vulnerable, are more resilient to the socioeconomic consequences of extreme weather, climate, water and other environmental events.”
Congress will evaluate the WMO budget and authorize the maximum expenditure for the years 2024-2027.
The execution of the UN Early Warnings for All Initiative, one of WMO's key strategic priorities, was the focus of the high-level debate on the first day.
'Accelerating and Scaling Up Action at the Country Level' was the theme.
