The Climate Application Forum brings together the Department of Hydrology and Meteorology (DHM) and key sectoral institutions in the country from the national to the local level, for dialogue vis-à-vis the generation and application of user-driven multi-timescale climate information.
Through an iterative process that is built on climate variability and change, for facilitating sustainability, the Climate Application Forum 2025 is targeted to provide opportunities for sectoral stakeholders to seasonally review their climate risk-informed, anticipatory preparedness plans and implementation thereof, and how these could be improved in subsequent season(s); and for DHM to constantly evolve/tailor climate information to suit user requirements. Experiences and learnings, from informed seasonal and sub-seasonal preparedness planning and decision-making, are expected to build capacities, in due course, for effective long-term adaptation and resilience
