This guide is intended to provide a useful reference for NMSs in their common goal to improve the public understanding of and response to warnings. It is not intended however that the complete set of guidelines being offered will be appropriate for adoption in every country. Moreover it is acknowledged that most NMSs already have in place a range of measures to improve the public understanding of and response to warnings. These guidelines are therefore designed to prompt NMSs to increase their efforts.
