Sustainability and Climate Change Governance
Peer reviewed
Abstract
Abstract
Abstract The development, delivery and use of climate services at the national level requires significant interaction among stakeholders, including government, civil society, the private sector, technical partners and donors. A National Framework for Climate Services (NFCS) aims to coordinate, facilitate and strengthen collaboration among national institutions to improve the development, delivery and use of science-based climate predictions and services to inform decision-making in climate sensitive socioeconomic sectors. The NFCS concept was first recommended by the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) with the launch of the Global Framework for Climate Services in 2012. Since then, many countries worldwide have been establishing and implementing an NFCS, supported by a set of Step-by-Step Guidelines (WMO, 2018). This study examines global progress in NFCS implementation and seeks to understand barriers to implementation. It then asks what has proved successful in different contexts and proposes improvements to guidance and support mechanisms based on this success. The findings are the result of a qualitative assessment, based on interviews and discussions conducted as part of the revision of the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) Step-by-Step Guidelines for Establishing a National Framework for Climate Services.
