Partnering with WMO

The World Meteorological Organization (WMO) encourages worldwide collaboration on meteorology, climatology, hydrology and related subjects, seeking to enhance weather forecasting, climate monitoring and early warning systems to reduce the effect of natural disasters and to assist sustainable development.

Together, FAO and WMO address the complex concerns of food security, agriculture and climate change, helping to increase countries' capacity for sustainable agricultural development, reduce disaster risks and support adaptation to climate change.

Memberships

FAO and WMO are both Members of the United Nations Sustainable Development Group (UNSDG), a high-level forum for joint policy formation and decision-making, which guides, supports, tracks and oversees the coordination of development operations in countries and territories across the world.
