Understanding and integrating climate and environment risk data in humanitarian action
Listen now
Description
Commitment #4 of the Climate and Environment Charter encourages organisations to better understand climate and environmental risks to calibrate responses adequately. Meteorological data and local and indigenous knowledge about patterns of variability should be used to provide risk analyses that are comprehensive, reliable, and relevant. In many places where humanitarian organizations work, relevant data can be scarce or unreliable, and collaboration across the humanitarian sector and beyond to address existing and emergent data gaps is critical. This webinar will provide insights on: - How to gather and analyse data and translate them into programming - How to share data given that larger and smaller organisations have different capacity and access to it - The benefit of sharing data from metereological, agriculture, private sector and governmental sources to inform both humanitarian and developmental programmes.
