Abstract
Targeting country teams of modellers, principal investigators (PIs) and policy-makers from International Development Research Centre (IDRC)-funded Climate Change and Water projects in Latin America, the Caribbean and Asia, the aim of the workshop was to strengthen science-society communication pathways by giving participants the opportunity to reflect on challenges and opportunities of applying climate and hydrological information into policy. The critical role of politicians was highlighted, with policy-makers themselves complaining that politicians do not see the value of the bigger picture, and are less open to alternative management strategies and approaches
