This webinar will share practical recommendations and a few approaches to generating and communicating climate change information and uncertainties. It will draw on insights from cognitive psychology and experiences from Future Climate for Africa’s work in west and southern Africa. This includes engagements to communicate changes in the west African monsoon under climate change, and integrating climate knowledge with urban decision-makers in Lusaka, Windhoek and Maputo. Two approaches will receive more attention: the use of climate impact narratives, and data visualisation and probabilistic information.
Panel presentations will be followed by a Q&A with attendees.
