Famine Early Warning Systems Network
The Famine Early Warning Systems Network (FEWS NET) is a global initiative that monitors weather, crop conditions, and other factors to predict food shortages and droughts ahead of time. Its goal is to provide governments, aid organizations, and communities with timely information to prevent hunger crises. By analyzing data from satellites, weather forecasts, and field reports, FEWS NET helps identify areas at risk of famine early, enabling proactive responses such as food assistance or resource management. This system helps save lives by allowing early action before conditions worsen.
