UmiRedi: Building a Climate and Disaster Ready Solomon Islands

UmiRedi was developed to strengthen climate and disaster resilience across Solomon Islands. By giving people access to timely, reliable information, the platform supports communities and schools in planning for the risks they face, and helps decision-makers act with greater confidence, using digital technology to turn information into action.

UmiRedi also reflects what can be achieved when we work together. Government, communities, technical partners, and development partners have joined forces to build a more resilient future for all Solomon Islanders.

Built for households, schools, and communities to prepare for, respond to, and recover from cyclones, floods, tsunamis, earthquakes, and other hazards, UmiRedi puts early warning alerts, incident reporting, and preparedness planning in your pocket — designed to keep working even with limited or no internet connection.
