WFP's Climate Services
This document highlights WFP's climate services. These climate services help vulnerable communities address the challenges of climate risks by providing the information they need to make well-informed decisions. Timely, easy to understand and act-upon climate information can help communities take the necessary actions to better anticipate and prepare for these changing risks, adapt to a changing climate and strengthen their resilience and food security.
Examples of climate services include weather forecasts and early warning systems to guide people on how to prepare for a major storm, information on migration routes for livestock during a drought, sharing ideas on better food storage options for an unusually wet season, or on suggested crops to plant in drier long-term conditions under climate change.
Climate risks are among the key drivers of hunger in the world. Many countries and vulnerable people often lack access to basic climate and weather information, such as reliable forecasts, to properly manage the climate-related risks they face. With climate change increasing the frequency and intensity of disasters such as floods and droughts, it is becoming more urgent to support vulnerable countries and people to have access to relevant climate information.
