Assessment Report on Municipal Knowledge Needs and Narratives of Climate Change for Maintaining Trust in Standardised Climate Services
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: The report examines the critical gap at the interface between science-based climate adaptation plans and their implementation. Since climate change impacts vary significantly across regions, climate services must extend beyond merely providing climate data and information. Integrating place-based knowledge and contextual narratives is essential for ensuring that climate services are relevant, credible and trusted by communities. Using several case studies as examples, the report makes recommendations for incorporating these elements into climate services, discusses the limits of standardisation, and identifies key factors that influence the success of adaptation to the local impacts of a changing climate.
