Anticipatory Action

Anticipatory Action refers to proactive measures taken to prevent or mitigate the impact of potential crises, such as natural disasters or economic downturns. Instead of waiting for a disaster to occur, organizations, governments, and communities assess risks and implement strategies in advance. This could include preparing emergency supplies, developing early warning systems, or training people in resilience skills. By acting early, these initiatives aim to save lives, reduce suffering, and minimize economic losses, ultimately leading to quicker recovery and more resilient societies.
