Abstract

Maprooms are powerful and freely accessible online visuals of climate data tailored to the agricultural and other sectors, play a large role in making climate information more accessible and usable. By translating past, present, or future conditions into expected impacts and management advisories, they are meeting the needs of different decision-makers for location- and sector-specific information for adaptation in Africa. A staff member from the International Research Institute for Climate and Society travelled to Zambia to train the Zambia Met on how to use the Python Maprooms from October 22 – November 5, 2022.
