Argentina launches federal ENOS plan to coordinate El Niño response

ENOS plan El Niño Karina Milei Santiago Hardie Resistencia

On 3 August 2026, the II Consejo Regional de Seguridad Interior convened in Resistencia, Chaco, bringing together national officials – Secretary General of the Presidency Karina Milei, Chief of Cabinet Diego Santilli and Security Minister Alejandra Monteoliva – alongside the governors of Chaco (Leandro Zdero) and Corrientes (Juan Pablo Valdés) and Paraguay’s interior minister Enrique Riera Escudero. The meeting presented the Federal Coordination Plan ENOS 2026/2027, unveiled by Santiago Hardie, executive director of the Federal Emergency Agency (AFE). The ENOS plan provides a real‑time dashboard, municipal risk‑modeling tools and integrates the National Meteorological Service, the National Water Institute, the National Space Activities Commission and the National Emergency Alert and Monitoring System (SINAME). Climate models indicate a near‑100 % chance that the El Niño phenomenon will persist and intensify in the coming months, prompting coordinated preventive actions across the Argentine provinces and the neighboring country.

Regional workshops and local initiatives – from the Rosario nautical clubs to municipal meetings in Azul, Vialidad sessions in Entre Ríos and provincial round‑tables in Ceres and Avellaneda – echoed the national strategy, preparing flood‑risk protocols, channel cleaning and emergency‑response logistics. The broad effort aims to anticipate floods, protect agricultural production and safeguard communities throughout the Paraná‑Paraguay‑Uruguay river basin.
