Training on using climate scenarios and analogues for designing adaptation strategies in agriculture in Ethiopia
The CGIAR Research Program on Climate Change, Agriculture and Food Security (CCAFS) East Africa, in collaboration with Ethiopian Institute of Agricultural Research (EIAR) will hold a three-day training workshop on “Using Climate Scenarios and Analogues for Designing Adaptation Strategies in Agriculture”.
The CGIAR Research Program on Climate Change, Agriculture and Food Security (CCAFS) East Africa, in collaboration with Ethiopian Institute of Agricultural Research (EIAR) will hold a three-day training workshop on “Using Climate Scenarios and Analogues for Designing Adaptation Strategies in Agriculture”. The training is a follow-up to the regional training workshop which was held in early August, 2012 in Nairobi, where participants from different countries developed action plans over the next six months. For Ethiopia, training of selected professionals from EIAR and the National Meteorological Agency (NMA) on applications of the climate scenarios and analogue tool was identified as priority.
The objective of the training is to build national capacity on the use of climate scenarios and analogues for designing adaptation strategies in agriculture in Ethiopia. Participants will be drawn from the Ethiopian Institute Agricultural Research (EIAR), National Agricultural Research Systems (NARS), National Meteorological Agency (NMA), universities and other key partners from Ethiopia.
