Africa, sustainable development and climate change; the role of climate research

Climate change could severely undermine efforts to achieve the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). For Africa, delivering the vision of the SDGs is intrinsically linked to robust information on the continent's current and future climate. Demand-led climate research can plug gaps in our understanding of changing climate patterns and refine existing climate products and services. From improving climate modelling to sharpening seasonal rainfall predictions, climate research plays a vital role in building Africa’s resilience to climate change and keeping the continent on track as it charts its path towards sustainable development.
