Satellites to show the way forward for Mekong region

Efficient natural resource management, disaster warning and a reduction in the effects of climate change on the Lower Mekong region will be enhanced thanks to the SERVIR – Mekong project.

The SERVIR – Mekong project is funded by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) and implemented by the Asian Disaster Preparedness Centre by using satellite images and information provided by US National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA).
 
The project will operate for a five-year period from 2014 to 2018.
