2024 State of climate services

The 2024 edition of the report describes the current state of climate services while also examining and assessing the progress that has been made during the last five years. The report explores the climate policy response to the climate challenge, and advancements made by national meteorological and hydrological services (NMHSs) across the climate services value chain.

This year’s edition also includes an in-depth look at how a selection of 13 countries have successfully used climate services to deliver socioeconomic benefits at a national, regional or global level. The analysis draws on 113 case studies that were developed over the last five years across multiple sectors, and examines key enablers, as well as showcasing the value being created by climate services. The report is based on contributions from 38 partners including major climate finance institutions and the UNFCCC Secretariat. The UN Office for Disaster Risk Reduction worked closely with WMO on the Investment section of this year's edition.
