Standardization and Enhancement of Meteorological Equipment: Involves bringing all meteorological instrumentation up to World Meteorological Organization standards, ensuring proper maintenance of these instruments in the long term and establishing protocols for monitoring water level increases.
Data Integration and Information Dissemination: Creation of a platform for integrating meteorological, oceanographic, and hydrological data, the popularization of meteorological information to as many as possible and training of technical teams on meteorological data collection.
Observation and Mapping: need for spatial observation maps showing the evolution of disasters and their potential impacts, as well as maps identifying endemic species and plant sites requiring immediate action.
Infrastructure and Capacity Building: strengthening of both human and technical capacities within the administration handling meteorological issues,
Early warning: the setting of thresholds to trigger alerts for water level increases, and the operationalization of an early warning system for coastal towns with the installation of automatic synoptic weather stations.
Emergency Planning and Preparedness procedures/ plans: Implementing emergency plans that take into account resurgence of disasters like landslides and floods, and development of a procedures manual for risk prevention and management.
Communication and Coordination: Transferring technology of advanced communication tools, coordinating between sectoral technical teams, and establishing a national-local crisis coordination committee.
Interdepartmental Coordination Strategy: Formulating strategies for coordination between different administrative bodies responsible for meteorology, oceanography, hydrology, aquatic ecosystems, environment, and forests. This will help in linking information and identifying emergency repair sites.
