Investing in effective, sustainable climate information services is a vital part of adapting to climate change, especially in Africa, a new research report by the Overseas Development Institute (ODI) reveals. The report dubbed ‘Investing for sustainable climate services: Insights from the African experience’ looks at the support provided in strengthening weather and climate information services in several African countries from 2016 to 2021. The research calls for governments on the continent to make accessible weather and climate information services, which is viewed by scientists as tools that may offer effective adaptation capacities to communities and businesses around Africa. The findings come ahead of the Climate Adaptation Ambition Summit on 25th and 26th January 2021, to be attended by world leaders including Boris Johnson, Emmanuel Macron, and Sheikh Hasina.
