Abstract

Plenary discussions raised issues regarding the presentations, and whether all four countries had properly covered the type, format and availability of meteorological data. The workshop provided space for project updates and challenges. The country reports were found to be a good summary of country situations. However, the reports did not clearly show gaps in knowledge and issues that need to be addressed in order to improve resilience. Lessons from climate change presented in the reports were too broad to be published as vital consumer information. Risks in terms of impacts on agriculture are missing.
