  2. Climate Information and Sustainable Development As understanding of the climate system grows and society becomes more aware of the potential opportunities from this knowledge, demand is developing for new and better climate services

  3. The Climate Risk Management Challenge Adaptation Mitigation Anthropogenic Climate Variability Natural Climate Variability Climate Observations (NMHSs, GCOS, GEO, etc. )

  4. The Climate Risk Management Challenge Adaptation Mitigation Anthropogenic Climate Variability Global Framework for Climate Services Policy(UNFCCC) Natural Climate Variability Assessment(IPCC) Research (WCRP, ESSP, etc.) Climate Observations (NMHSs, GCOS, GEO, etc. )

  5. The Challenge To provision of adequate and timely climate information and its appropriate use is two-fold: • developing a system for production and delivery of climate information, spanning global to local scales, and • ensuring an effective uptake of the information by decision makers in different sectors.

  6. Climate Predictions Information gap • The IPCC process provides useful information for the time post 2050. But there is a conspicuous information gap to support management of regional and shorter term climate risks. 24/09/2014 6

  7. Acting on Climate Change: THE UN SYSTEM DELIVERING AS ONE 24/09/2014 7

  8. Global Framework for Climate ServicesGoal “Enable climate adaptation and climate risk management through the incorporation of science-based climate information and prediction into policy and practice at all levels.”

  9. ObjectivesGlobal Framework for Climate Services • Enhance understanding and responding to the risks and opportunities; • Improve climate information for the development of natural resources, protection of lives, livelihoods and property; • Provide user-defined climate and climate-relevant information • at global, regional, national, local and sectoral levels • in a timely, understandable and easily available manner • Promote the confident and frequent use of climate and climate-relevant information for economic efficiency, social well-being and development of policies for sustainable development.

  10. Global Framework for Climate Services Sectoral Users Transport Water Energy Agriculture Ecosystem Climate Services Application Programme Health Tourism Climate Services Information System Climate Research and Modeling Observations and Monitoring

  11. Climate Services Application Programme The needs of the user community are diverse and complex

  12. Regional Climate Outlook Forums National COF Regional Users National Sectoral Users National climate secrvices (NMHSs) Regional Climate Centres Global Users Global climate centres Delivery Mechanism

  13. Partnerships • Providing access to various user sectors • UN Agencies such as FAO, WHO,UNEP, UN WTO etc • Technical NGOs • Mainstreaming climate information in policy and decision-making • World Bank, UNEP, ISDR, UNDP etc • Media • Private Sector • Implementing the initiative • GPC, RCCs, Research Institutions • Regional Institutions such as ICPAC, ACMAD, RBOs etc • Regional groupings • Advanced NMHSs • UNDP • Financing various activities • World Bank, Regional Banks, Development aid agencies
