Our Engagement Priorities
GEO’s global priorities include the Sustainable Development Goals, Climate Action, and Disaster Risk Reduction.
Sustainable Development Goals
Earth observations play a major role in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). GEO is instrumental in integrating Earth observation data into the methodology of measuring indicators and achieving the SDGs.
Climate Action
Earth observations relevant to climate action are not limited to weather or climate, but are much broader and include terrestrial and socio-economic variables. GEO makes available Earth observations in support of effective policy responses for climate change adaptation, mitigation and other specific provisions, working with partners to enhance global observation systems for climate action.
Disaster Risk Reduction
Earth observations contribute to disaster preparedness and better mitigation and response. GEO supports disaster resilience by increasing coordination of Earth observations to forecast and prepare for disasters, to reduce damage and to better manage and recover from disasters.
