The Challenge Ahead
Society is only now grasping the full extent to which our lives, jobs and environment are sensitive to a changing climate. Effective decision making will be needed in many areas if we are to build a climate resilient future.

Overview
• CKB’s vision is a world in which people make climate sensitive decisions fully informed by the best available climate knowledge.
• The Manifesto was developed in a collaborative process by the Climate Knowledge Brokers Group (CKB) and describes the essential role of climate knowledge brokers in achieving that vision.

The keystone of an arch is the one piece without which the rest will fall.
Similarly, without effective knowledge brokers,
climate information providers and users are destined to remain unconnected. The
users' needs go unmet and the effort spent producing the information could be wasted.
