Intersec speech at ITU's P2C Annual Conference

Intersec's pledge aims to accelerate the deployment of mobile-enabled Early Warning Systems worldwide, in line with the United Nations’ EW4All initiative.

As recent ITU data reveals that less than a quarter of countries have implemented mobile EWS, we are deeply committed to collaborating with all stakeholders to support disaster-prone countries.”

— Charlotte Cardona, spokesperson for Intersec

PARIS, FRANCE, February 3, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Key statistics highlight the importance of robust early warning systems:
- Countries with limited warning systems face six times higher disaster mortality than those with comprehensive coverage.
- €1 invested in risk reduction saves €$15 in recovery costs.
- 30% reduction in incident damage when an early warning is issued within 24 hours.

Paris, February 3, 2025 – Intersec, a leading public warning system provider, has announced a significant pledge to the International Telecommunication Union's (ITU) Partner2Connect Digital Coalition (P2C). This commitment aims to accelerate the deployment of mobile-enabled Early Warning Systems (EWS) worldwide, in line with the United Nations’ Early Warning for All initiative (EW4All).

The pledge focuses on three key areas:
1. Technological Advancement: Intersec will expand its reach beyond the 400 million people currently served by its emergency response solutions. The company will ensure rapid alert message delivery to populations facing climate-related and other hazards, leveraging Cell Broadcast and Location-based SMS technologies, and emphasizing a comprehensive, multi-hazard, and standardized approach.
2. Collaborative Efforts: Intersec is committed to fostering meaningful partnerships with deployment, technical, and advocacy partners to enhance disaster management and population resilience globally.
3. Financial Contribution: An initial $100,000 commitment will support extensive advocacy campaigns, along with project consultations and expert publications to accelerate the adoption of mobile-EWS.

This initiative supports the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals 13 (Climate Action) and 17 (Partnerships for the Goals).
