## Description

The African Center for Meteorological Applications for Development (ACMAD) is a pivotal institution established in 1985 by the United Nations Economic Commission for Africa (UNECA). ACMAD serves as the continent's premier weather and climate monitoring center, dedicated to leveraging meteorological science for sustainable development across Africa. 

The center focuses on providing a wide range of products and services, including weather and climate monitoring, forecasting, and regional early warnings for extreme weather events such as droughts and tropical cyclones. ACMAD aims to enhance the capacity of National Meteorological and Hydrological Services (NMHSs) through tailored programs and partnerships, crucial for achieving the African Union’s Agenda 2063 and Sustainable Development Goals, particularly in combating climate change.

In addition to monitoring and forecasting, ACMAD offers climate services tailored for agriculture, drought monitoring, and assessments that empower stakeholders to make informed decisions. With its commitment to fostering resilience, ACMAD is instrumental in building a climate-smart future for the continent.
