Last week Dr Katharine Vincent was in Maputo to meet with government and non-government representatives to assess the needs for climate capacity building in the country. The needs assessment is a key component of the USAID-funded project on Climate Risk and Vulnerability in southern Africa, where customised training will be designed and run to promote the use of weather and climate information in decision-making. As well as Mozambique, the project will take place in Mauritius, Namibia, Zambia and Zimbabwe.
