The WMO HydroHub was established in 2017 with the financial support of the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC) to address hydrological monitoring challenges by enhancing hydrological monitoring systems worldwide by bringing together a broad range of stakeholders from different sectors and providing them with technical guidance and support for sustainable operations.
The WMO HydroHub Phase I (January 2017 - August 2021) aimed at helping to expand a reliable and sustainable base of hydrometeorological data and information services in support of informed decisions and policy-making in water management. The highlights of WMO HydroHub Phase I are available here.
The WMO HydroHub Phase II started in September 2021 for a period of 5 years. In its Phase II, it is foreseen that the WMO HydroHub will reach the following overall goal and outcomes:
