Tegucigalpa, Honduras, diciembre de 2020

If there is something that deserves to be highlighted from this past year, is the ability to connect synergies

to make Anticipatory Action a closer and more effective mechanism to address the needs of at risk communities. During 2024, we energized global, regional and national dialogue spaces that facilitated the adhesion of more people and organizations committed to better coordination. National Red Cross Societies made great efforts

to fine-tune the operation of anticipation mechanisms.

The work at community level

has been intense and fullfilling; we improved the integration of Anticipatory Action with other approaches, such as climate change adaptation, Early Warning Systems and their local integration into

municipal managements.

As our nature is the “impermanence”, we shared a “farewell” with our friend Mathieu Destrooper, who left the region (for now), to add his heart to humanitarian causes in other parts of the planet.

After contemplating from this perspective the sunset of 2024,

we can say with total certainty

that this new year finds us more prepared and united, to be by the side of those who need it most, in

a timely and coordinated manner.
