Global Framework for Climate Services

• Goal:– Enable better management of the risks

of climate variability and change and adaptation to climate change at all levels, through development and incorporation of science-based climate information and prediction into planning, policy and practice.

Why a Framework for Climate Services?

Capacity Development Consultation Meeting 33


• Present capabilities for providing climate services do not exploit all that we know about climate

• Present capabilities fall far short of meeting current and future needs and delivering their full and potential benefits, especially in developing countries

The Framework for Climate Services will build on existing capacities and leverage these through coordination to address shortcomings



• Many countries lack the infrastructural, technical, human and institutional capacities to provide high-quality climate services.

The vision of the GFCS

Capacity Development Consultation Meeting1010

The vision of the GFCS

By 2015, the Framework will establish:

1. A global system to routinely generate and electronically exchange an extensive set of defined climate data and data products

2. An initiative in developing countries to upgrade the climate service capacities and strategies of all vulnerable and low-capacity countries to a baseline level

3. An initial suite of new knowledge products – protocols, tools, products and services – developed through multiple initiatives on user interfacing and services development

4. An ongoing governance mechanism that drives the Framework’s development, particularly by engaging and mobilising stakeholders, user communities and new resources


The Recommendations of the HLT

Recommendation #1

• Invest USD 75 M/year to create and sustain a global Framework

Around USD 72 M/year for projects in the developing world,

Around USD 3 M/year for a small secretariat supporting Board and technical committees


Title(11.1.x – 11.1.y)

Recommendation #2


Recommendation #3

• Establish ad-hoc technical group for detailed implementation plan within next six months:

- modalities for operation of the Framework;

– high priority, fast-track projects;

– draft terms of reference for committees that will carry out the work of the Framework.


Recommendation #4

• Governments and development agencies give high priority to national capacity building in developing countries

• Rapidly strengthen, or create the new regional elements of the Framework


GFCS PrioritiesGFCS Priorities

All sectors to be tackled but in the first four years the GFCS is proposing giving priority to:

• Agriculture• Disaster risk reduction• Water• Health


Capacity Development to support Climate Services

1818Capacity Development Consultation Meeting

Areas of capacity development

Human capacity Infrastructural capacity Procedural capacity Institutional capacity

Capacity development should:─ address both demand and supply sides─ be Service oriented─ respond to user’s needs─ be balanced with climate science capabilities

Essential climate related capabilities of a NMS

• Observation:– Data mgmnt with quality assurance (archives & rescue)– Climate standards (i.e. those of GCOS)– Historical & real-time observations of the Essential Climate Variables– Contribute data to WIS– Improve station density

• Research:– Participate in field experiments and applied research

• Capacity bldg:– Participate in training and/or conduct it– Participate in Regional Climate Outlook Forums

• User interface:– Interact with user to meet requests and improve products– Contribute to Regional or National Climate Outlook Forums
