The International Weather and Climate Forum provides an important opportunity for weather presenters and the scientific community to engage with each other. Developing contacts with weather presenters is one of the main focuses of the IPCC's outreach strategy. We've been working with the WMO for some years now to support these meetings.
I welcome the work of the Forum in bringing together weather presenters to improve their understanding of climate change.
Hoesung LeeChair, IPCCIntergovernmental Panel on Climate Change
Petteri TaalasSecretary General, WMOWorld Meteorological Organization
It is a great pleasure for me to serve as a patron of the International Weather and Climate Forum. Since 15 years, the WMO has supported the FIM and its goal of strengthening knowledge and international collaboration among weather presenters. These well-known TV and radio personalities are among the most effective communicators that we have in the WMO community. They deliver information and knowledge about the weather, but also about science, climate variability.

Paul MONARE, SABC (South Africa)The workshop has significantly impacted my day to day workflow in avery positive manner. I have now incorporated climate education in my weather reports.I inform the viewers about climate change, sustainable development and'green living.
TESTIMONIES FROM PARTICIPANTS
Michael WILLIAMS (WMO) & Jonathan LYNN (IPCC)In addition to their growing role in communicating about climate change, weather presenterscan use advances in climate science to provide forecasts and context about seasons and otherlonger term time periods.
Nam NGUYEN HOANG, VTV (Vietnam)I understand that not only Vietnam but other countries are also encountering their own climate change issue. We have themutual problem of how to transform the communication in away that attract more audiences but still keep the scientificnature of information.
Ariel RODRIGUEZ, Telemundo 51 (USA) The 13th IWF wasan eye-opening experience for me as a meteorologist andenvironmental reporter. I came away with a revitalized sense of urgency, and with a better idea about how to communicate tomy viewers the effects of climate change within our community.
Habibatou DIAKITÉ, ORTS (Mali) My country is located in the Sahelo-Saharan Region, consequently temperatures may rise up to 46°(114.8ºF)!Therefore, special and urgent awareness-raising is imperative.

Marie-Pierre MOULIGNEAU, RTBF (Belgium)We are and must be the link between the scientists and the public, because only by raising awareness among people we’ll be able tochange things.
