Statement by Mr. Carlos Lopes at the 10th EUMETSAT user forum in Africa: the 10th eumetsat user forum in Africa
Statement by Mr. Carlos Lopes at the 10th EUMETSAT User Forum in Africa. Mr. Lopes on his remarks highlighted that, This User Forum symbolizes the important role that partnerships can play to achieve mutually beneficial outcomes. This is evident from the successful collaboration between ECA’s African Climate Policy Centre, the African Union Commission, the Ethiopian National Meteorology Agency and the European Organization for the Exploitation of Metrological Satellites (EUMETSAT) to organize this event. It is also clear from the diverse and high level of participation from over 60 countries and agencies. This spirit must continue to inform efforts to gather the data, images and products for weather and climate management in Africa. ECA will continue to explore ways of using promoting the use of science, technology and innovation to catalyze development and improve the generation of socio-economic data. The African Climate Policy Centre, the policy arm of ClimDev-Africa, will enhance partnership with EUMETSAT particularly to implement the Global Framework for Climate Services. Such collaboration will assist in better managing the risks of climate variability and adaptation to climate change at national and regional levels.
