About RANET

WHO IS RANET?

RANET is a collaborative effort of many National Hydro-Meteorological Service, non-government organizations, and communities.  These varied partners come together to make weather, water, and climate information available to rural and remote populations, which are often most in need of environmental forecasts, observations, and warnings.

WHAT IS THE MISSION OF RANET?

RANET has a simple mission:  Help national and regional organizations get useful information locked in urban areas to rural and remote places in the hope of promoting sustainable development and reducing disaster losses.  RANET therefore works with national and other partners to develop new communication tools, as well as provide training and capacity building.  RANET focuses on the management and deployment of technologies in partnership with national agencies who are the producers of information.
