A regional approach to strengthening hydromet
services?
Example for regional coordination
• PRIORITY 1: IMPROVED WEATHER SERVICES→marine/ocean, aviation, public services
• PRIORITY 2: DISASTER RISK REDUCTION→MHEWS, CCA
• PRIORITY 3: IMPROVED CLIMATE & HYDROLOGICAL SERVICES→ Climate information and prediction, water resources
• PRIORITY 4: INTEGRATEDOBSERVING &COMMUNICATION SYSTEMS
• PRIORITY 5: COORDINATEDSUPPORT FOR NMHSs & PMC
VisionTo enable better management of the risks of climate variability and change and adaptation to climate change, through the development and incorporation of science-based climate information and prediction into planning, policy and practice on the global, regional and national scale.
National Frameworks for Climate Services (NFCSs) as a foundational step for the implementation of projects and for reaching the targets of the Paris Agreement
Development of Regional Frameworks for Climate Services (RFCSs) are being launched
GFCS Sponsors & Partners
GFCS Priority Areas
• Agriculture & Food Security
• Disaster risk reduction
• Water
• Health
• Energy
Decision-making and investments in climate-sensitive sectors are improved through the co-development and use of climate services with user interface platforms (UIPs)
Regional Climate Outlook Forums
Discussion
• Which value would you see in a regional approachto strengthening hydromet services?
• Who should participate in its development and implementation?
• What would be the main elements?
• What would be other regional/global frameworkssuch an approach needs to link to?
