How Network Management Turned Me Into a Project Manager

When I started working as a Network Manager, I understood the role in fairly straightforward terms: keeping weather stations operational, ensuring data is flowing, and supporting field teams to carry out installations and maintenance effectively. Four years into this role, I now see it as something much broader, something that sits at the intersection of people, systems, and processes, and naturally evolves into project management work, whether or not that is the formal title

From Data Scarcity to Climate Resilience: Advancing Earth Observation in Hard-to-Reach Environments at #EGU26

This week at the European Geosciences Union General Assembly 2026, researchers, engineers, and Earth observation experts came together to address one of the most urgent challenges in climate resilience: improving environmental observations in regions where climate risks are rising fastest, but data availability remains limited.

Strengthening Multi-Hazard Forecasting in East Africa through Next-Generation Data

Across East Africa, climate variability is increasingly disrupting livelihoods, infrastructure, and ecosystems. From recurring droughts to sudden flooding events, these challenges highlight the urgent need for stronger early warning systems and improved access to reliable, high-quality weather data to support timely and informed decision-making.
