Open call for RIfS Robust Information Working Group and associated Task Teams

WCRP secondary logo GEP RGB

The WCRP Regional Information for Society (RIfS) Core Project is calling for members of the newly established Robust Information Working Group (RIWG), and associated task teams which will contribute to its work. The aim of the group is to establish what it means for a scientific product to be “robust”, i.e.,  context specific regional climate information that is fit for informing decision-making; and what processes could look like to generate and apply robust information to produce “robust” decisions.

The group aims to identify attributes of robustness of information, identify processes to generate and apply such information, and produce recommendations about what we need to change in our communities of practice, institutions and structures to allow for the achievement of robust climate change information geared towards context-specific decisions.

For more information and to nominate someone (including self-nomination), deadline 15 May 2025 - 17:00 UTC, please visit the open call webpage and the application form.
