| description |
This report was commissioned by
climate investment funds (CIF’s) E and L initiative to
distill lessons from CIF’s pilot program on climate
resilience (PPCR) support identifying, designing, and
implementing hydrometeorological and climate services
investments. It seeks to generate learning and strategic
insight into the different operational pathways that can be
taken by national hydrological and meteorological services
to develop, deliver, and strengthen hydrometeorological and
climate services. The outputs from the study comprise of one
synthesis report and three country studies for Jamaica,
Mozambique, and Nepal. These three countries have been
selected for the study due to their different institutional
frameworks, hydrometeorological systems, and socio-economic
context. They provide diverse in-depth insights in
hydrometeorological and climate service development,
delivery, and use. In this respect, the PPCR-supported
Improving Climate Data and Information Management Project
(ICDIMP) was selected as a case study project for Jamaica.
As of December 2021, the project is still under
implementation and, based on the project experience acquired
so far, this country study elucidates lessons learned on the
process for modernizing hydrometeorological systems and
developing climate services to users. Furthermore, it offers
insight into challenges and opportunities for climate
services development, delivery, and use in the Caribbean
countries and small island developing states. Qualitative
methods, including structured interviews and literature
review, were used to identify promising pathways to
transform weather, water, and climate services in the three
case study countries. In Jamaica, the analysis of the data
collected revealed seven themes regarding critical pathways
to continue to transform weather, water, and climate
services in the country. These comprise of integrating
hydrometeorological data resources; hydrometeorological and
climate service design and delivery; fostering
hydrometeorological and climate services impact through user
feedback; building appropriate human capacity; strengthening
national coordination; promoting international
collaboration; and institutional strengthening. The report
summarizes key findings and recommendations. |
