CLIM-RUN (Climate Local Information in the Mediterranean region: Responding to User Needs) is a research project (2011-2014) funded by the EU Commission under the 7th Framework Programme.

aims to develop a Protocol for providing climate information for action from the regional to the local scale, tailored to different sectors of society. The time horizon of interest is the period 2010-2050 which encompasses the contributions of both inter-decadal variability and greenhouse-forced climate change.

CLIM-RUN follows a learning process in which the early involvement of stakeholders is crucial to establish productive two-way communication channels to identify well-defined climate information needs and assess the envisioned protocol for selected inter-dependent sectors (in particular, energy, tourism and natural hazards).

CLIM-RUN is also working on improved modelling and downscaling tools to optimally respond to the specific needs of end users. CLIM-RUN is intended to provide the seed for a Mediterranean basin-wide climate service network with the potential to converge into a pan-European network.

Early involvement of stakeholders :

First Stakeholder workshops

Iterative consultation and collaboration with stakeholders

Consolidation and collective review/assessment :

Second Stakeholder workshops

CLIMATE SERVICES PROTOCOLDraft General Structure

Overall process – the methodological key stages

o The business model (three tiers) for climate services

• Climate tier

• Intermediary (e.g., SME) tier

• Stakeholder tier

o Life cycle of Climate Services

o List of existing skills (data, model tools) and networks

o Need for coordination at national and European level.

Identification and selection of stakeholders

Communication with stakeholders

o Involvement of social science & impact experts

o Expectations and risks

Identification of user needs

o Priority ranking

Translation of needs

o Defining new research developments to answer the user needs

o Defining products

o Defining impacts transfer functions

Producing products

Assessing and refining products

o Feedback from stakeholder and intermediary (SME) levels to government /funding agencies to develop new products and research

Methodologies for evaluating the economic value of Climate Services

o Cost/benefit analysis

o Quality control and Certification?

Beyond CLIM-RUN: the lessons learnt

The North Adriatic second stakeholder workshop involved municipalities, local administrations and regional offices
