SY044
The Co-Production, Implementation, and Communication of Climate Services in the US and Abroad
Session ID#: 249452
Session Description:
Access to climate services in the US and abroad is critical for the advancement of societies, protection of livelihoods, and effective decision making. Climate services can include forecasts, online portals, tools, or technical guidance provided to end-users in a variety of different sectors including agriculture, water management, healthcare, and policy. Historically, co-development of climate services with vulnerable communities has led to user-centered services that better accommodate the communities' needs. This session calls for abstracts focused on any (or all) steps used for the co-production and implementation of climate services: e.g., 1) Building trust, identifying needs, and establishing connection with communities; 2) Co-developing desired services; 3) Translating, implementing, and transferring climate services to communities; and 4) Monitoring and evaluating climate services. We especially encourage reflections on the challenges and tensions that arise in practice, such as mismatches between user needs and technical offerings, or barriers to equitable access and use.
