Designing user-driven climate services

What we can learn from the Climandes project: A checklist for practitioners, scientists and policy makers

This paper outlines the approach, key findings and lessons learnt from Climandes project, a cooperation project between the Peruvian and Swiss weather services Senamhi and MeteoSwiss. The project developed an approach to systematically integrate small-scale farmers in the Andean highlands into the design and delivery of climate services to improve decision-making and climate resilience.
