Legal Framework and Institutional assessment • With reference to the baseline, the design of the continental coordination function including roles, responsibilities and procedures • The design and creation of an equipped and staffed continental operation room • The development of a continental overview of risk, so that possible scenarios of risk can be analysed before they occur, and possible countermeasures can be facilitated by the coordination function in AUC; • The enhancement of the monitoring and forecasting capability of the system by reinforcing the RECs and MS systems under the coordination of the AUC; • The establishment of a dissemination system for decisions and warnings throughout the whole system. • The development and implementation of an awareness campaign • The establishment of SoPs that link warnings to actions; the SoPs will determine actions flowing from the continental to the regional and the national level in case of dangerous events approaching and unfolding; • Capacity building for the staff of the operation room and the creation of the AUC training centre to ensure sustainability. The capacity building will also be implemented by ensuring that proper academic curricula are the support of networks of involved academic institutions and research centres. • As the system is being developed, a proper financing mechanism will be identified to support the infrastructure created.
