| Summary: | Project factsheet updated for the workshop #Climate services at work, Projects exchange and networking lab", held in Brussels, 29 -30 November 2017 - CDMA building. Organiser: European Commission More about this workshop: Through climate services, the best (climate) science serves the need of a wide range of users - from public authorities to business to citizens - to factor in the climate signal in their decisions, in order to minimize risks and seize possible opportunities. That is why the use of climate services can play a crucial role for the transition to a low carbon economy and to a more informed, resilient society, and support the implementation of the Paris Agreement. This makes user-driven climate services and the emergence of a related market a key research and innovation priority identified by the EU and supported through a number of funding programmes and initiatives. This vision, which has been pinpointed in the European research and innovation roadmap for climate services, is being turned into action also through a new wave of project activities - recently started or in pipeline to kick-off – which promise to deliver added value to the decision making and planning processes they address. The objectives of this event organized by Executive Agency for SMEs (EASME) in cooperation with JPI-Climate are: to bring together participants in climate services projects (mainly from Horizon 2020 and JPI-Climate ERA4CS); facilitate exchange and discussions on topics of mutual interest; enable the individual projects to position themselves and identifying synergies and cooperation opportunities with other projects; allow (perspective) users and stakeholders to get a snapshot of what is going on in the field; help identify activities and means to maximize the projects' impact and outreach and contribute towards increased coordination, complementarity and visibility of project activities. : We are on Twitter! @BG10Blueaction |
