Call for Proposals: Data Scraping and AI Integration for Early Warning Messaging

Project Description 

Project Description 

Beledweyne Voices is a community-centred initiative designed to strengthen local early warning systems and ensure that climate risk information is accessible, trusted, and acted upon by the people most affected by the crises. It integrates community-generated knowledge with satellite and manual hydrological data, and engages communities through radio, SMS, and participatory workshops. The project’s main focus is to scale up Raagsan’s existing Daadihiye Citizen Engagement Platform and deliver water and climate risk guidance and warnings through digitized hydrological observations, enhanced risk modelling and tailored messaging. The goal is to empower Beledweyne communities to take timely and informed decisions when faced by drought and flood emergencies.

Expected Outcome 

The expected outcome of this technical support is to enable Raagsan staff to complement the primary data collected through gauge readers with secondary data from open sources. It will allow staff to interpret complex data quickly and use it as part of the early warning messaging.
