ICG (Intergovernmental Coordination Group) for Tsunamis

The Intergovernmental Coordination Group for Tsunamis (ICG) is an international body established to enhance the global system for monitoring and warning about tsunamis. It brings together countries and organizations to improve early detection, communication, and preparedness for these deadly sea waves. By sharing data, technology, and best practices, ICG helps ensure that communities at risk receive timely alerts, reducing loss of life and damage. The group operates under the coordination of UNESCO’s Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission and aims to build a resilient, collaborative global tsunami warning network.
