A delegation of national coordinators and senior representatives from Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) member states visited the National Emergencies Operation Centre (NEOC) at the National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA) headquarters here on Wednesday to examine Pakistan\u2019s disaster management capabilities and explore stronger regional cooperation in early warning, emergency response and disaster risk reduction.<\/p>\n

The delegation, comprising representatives from Belarus, China, India, Iran, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Russia, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan, visited the NEOC in connection with the first meeting of the SCO Council of National Coordinators (CNC) being held under Pakistan\u2019s chairmanship.<\/p>\n

The NDMA team briefed the visiting representatives on the NEOC\u2019s operational capabilities and Pakistan\u2019s shift towards proactive disaster management, highlighting the use of advanced digital technologies and data-driven systems for hazard monitoring, risk assessment, early warning and informed decision-making.<\/p>\n

Chairman NDMA Lt Gen Inam Haider Malik briefed the delegation on the authority\u2019s initiatives to strengthen Pakistan\u2019s disaster response architecture and contribute to regional and global disaster risk reduction efforts. The delegation was also apprised of NDMA\u2019s recent achievements, technological advancements and plans to deploy next-generation technologies to strengthen disaster early warning systems, improve coordinated response mechanisms and ensure the timely dissemination of authentic and actionable information to the public.<\/p>\n
