Announced from Paris on September 18, the initiative focuses on implementing preventive measures, training programs, and enhanced management strategies in these three priority nations.
Simultaneously, the economic repercussions of the climate phenomenon are being felt in the region. The Central Reserve Bank of Peru announced on the same day that it has lowered the country's economic growth forecast for the year from 3.4 percent to 3.2 percent, citing the increasing probability and impact of El Niño.
