Participants: (8 re-insurers, 13 Met Services, WFP, World Bank, UNDP, WRMA)
USER Perspectives:
• Information (data and forecasts):– Availability and accessibility of historical and real-time data
– Data quality assurance, filling data gaps, Other data value-added services (??)
– Reliability, authoritative and timeliness of data (for contract design and settlement)
– Medium-term Weather and Seasonal Forecasts (portfolio management and forward looking risk analysis)
– Long term trend analysis (long-term market development strategy)
• Technical support and Service delivery
Meteorological Services Perspectives:
• Need for awareness raising among Met services
• Resources, ability and priorities to deliver
• “Commercial” ,“Security” and “Turf” Issues associated with data accessibility

Developing Tools and Training on Climate Forecasting and Analysis
toolsStatistical analysis of historical data
is only first estimate . Needs for forward looking information to
augment statistical hazard analysis and mapping

Impact of climate on sectors are linked to….
• Changing patterns of hydro-meteorological extremes
– Frequency, severity and location of droughts, floods, tropical cyclones, heat waves, etc
• Accumulation of risk linked to deviations of meteorological and hydrological conditions from normal
– Variations and changes in the onset of seasons, changes in the rainfall amounts and patters, etc.

Global/Regional/National Cooperation Framework For Provisions of Climate Services
Four Major Thrusts: • Understanding of information needs of at-risk sectors
– Through partnerships (with UN, international and regional agencies)
• Designation and coordination of network of global and regional climate centers – to faciliate provision of forecasting and analysis tools and
information to national centers
• Strengthen observation networks • More targeted climate research
