Increasingly variable climate and the rapid pace of other drivers of change are, however, overwhelming local knowledge and traditional practices for coping with climate related risks. Climate services—climate and weather information and advisories—can help farmers and pastoralists better manage climate-related agricultural risks and adapt to climate change.
CCAFS East Africa organized a webinar on November 23, 2016 to create an opportunity for scientists, technical experts and other stakeholders to discuss the provision of tailored weather and climate information that meets the needs of smallholder farmers and pastoralists in Africa. More than 40 participants joined the online webinar to understand and learn more about tools and methods that can be used to enhance climate information services. The webinar was moderated by John Recha from the CGIAR Research Program on Climate Change, Agriculture and Food Security (CCAFS).
Five panelist, drawn from different institutions, shared successful experiences from different parts of Africa that served as models for how different organizations can work together to design and implement comprehensive climate services for agriculture and food security. To set the scene for the discussions, James Hansen, CCAFS Climate Risk Management Flagship Leader made a presentation on the global perspective on climate services. He shared a history of climate services from 1910 to 2011 and how climate services can work for smallholder farmers and pastoralists at scale.
