At its 29th session (ICG/PTWS-XXIX/3, 1–2 and 7–8 December 2021), the Intergovernmental Coordination Group for the Pacific Tsunami Warning and Mitigation System approved the conduct of Exercise Pacific Wave 2022 (PacWave22) in the months of September through November 2022 to support International Disaster Risk Reduction Day (13 October) and World Tsunami Awareness Day (5 November). It was further decided that PacWave 22 will be conducted as a series of regional exercises organized through the PTWS Regional Working Groups where applicable, with support from the PTWS Tsunami Service Providers (TSPs) and the International Tsunami Information Center (ITIC), involving all PTWS countries, with one live communications test from PTWS TSPs to Member States on 13 October 2022. 

To answer questions related to PacWave22, Task Team on PacWave Exercises, ITIC and IOC will host an PacWave22 informational webinar on 13 September 2022 at 0300 UTC in English, and 1800 UTC primarily in Spanish.
