She cited the implementation of the Great Green Wall as one of the initiatives that would reduce the impacts of climate change, particularly in the Sahel.</p> <p>  </p> <p> Ms. Inoussa said the establishment of a climate fund for Sahel was an appropriate mechanism to unlock funding for climate action in the region. She urged participants to capitalize on the 5th Africa Regional Science Technology and Innovation Forum (STI) convened in Niamey to gain different insights to enrich the development of the Niamey Declaration, which will be an outcome of the Africa Regional Forum on Sustainable Development Goals that opens this week.</p> <p>  </p> <p> Speaking at the same meeting, Vice Chancellor, of the Abdou Moumouni University and Director of the West African Science Service Centre on Climate Change and Adapted Lands (WASCAL), Mr. Adamou Rabani said the impacts of climate change were devastating in Africa and that the Sahel was worse off. The incidents of  droughts, heatwaves, floods and internal strife brought untold misery to the Sahel region. </p> <p>  </p> <p> However, the region has enormous potential to  counter the impacts of climate change. He said Niger, for example, has the highest potential for solar energy to boost electricity in the country where many have no access to energy. Therefore mobilizing renewables was one way of reducing the impacts of climate change and ensuring energy access as well as food security. </p> <p>  </p> <p> Director General, African Centre of Meteorological Applications for Development (AMCAD),André Kamga Foamouhoue, said the Sahel region needs to act quickly in addressing the challenges brought by climate change by drawing lessons from persistent droughts and high temperatures to establish and operate early warning systems. </p> <p>  </p> <p> “We need to invest in strong multidisciplinary data, information and knowledge capabilities for science-based decisions and policies,”  Foamouhoue,urged, noting this would involve all public and private sector organizations working together at regional and continental levels.</p> <p>  </p> <p> The Sahel exemplifies the tragedy of human-induced impacts of climate change, said UN Resident &amp; Humanitarian Coordinator in Niger, Louise Aubin, arguing that the “continued use of hydrocarbons by developed countries at the expense of African people undermines the ability of African countries  to meet the SDGs and create the Africa we want.”</p> <p>  </p> <p> Anna Tjärvar, Counsellor in the Embassy of Sweden in Niger, said   the geopolitical, financial, climate and biodiversity crises reduced prosperity and progress throughout  the world by exacerbating poverty,   food insecurity and access to affordable energy. The Sahel region was not spared. </p> <p>  </p> <p> A 2016 World Bank study estimates that the GDP of the Sahel region could drop to low  as 11.7% by 2050 because of climate-related water scarcity. However, Sahel countries have a comparative advantage of many untapped mineral resources some of which are needed for a variety of green technologies that are in high demand globally. </p> <p>  </p> <p> Ms.  Tjärvar called for the building of institutional capacities to increase financing for climate action and managing climate impacts to fees to energy access and clean cooking in the Sahel region.</p> <p>  </p> <p> Meanwhile, speaking at a side event on reflections on the outcomes of COP27, the  Executive Director of the Pan-African Climate Justice Alliance (PACJA), Mithika Mwenda, said Africa needs a comprehensive climate response that identifies linkages between climate change and underlying human and political dynamics. </p> <p>  </p> <p> Mr. Mithika called for a road map on what action it should take to spearhead the African voice in the COP negotiations and, in particular, have African Heads of State and Ministers send a strong message to their global counterparts not to use current crises to delay climate funding and to cut their carbon  emissions.</p> <p>  </p> <p> “The COP27  was not only an African COP but African people’s COP, which brought into  fore African issues of underdevelopment due to changing climate and some of the issues of just transition,” Mr. Mithika said. He added that “The issue of energy and just transition was a victory for Africa...on the Loss and Damage we secured a major deal but that needs major unpacking to understand whether it was a deal or another diversion.”</p> <p>  </p> <p> Issued by:</p> <p> Communications Section</p> <p> Economic Commission for Africa</p> <p> PO Box 3001</p> <p> Addis Ababa</p> <p> Ethiopia</p> <p> Tel: +251 11 551 5826</p> <p> E-mail: <a href="mailto:eca-info@un.org">eca-info@un.org</a></p> </div></div></div> Tue, 07 Mar 2023 12:43:03 +0000 Anonymous 2737 at https://www.climdev-africa.org https://www.climdev-africa.org/content/urgent-climate-action-needed-africa#comments Experts pay tribute to the late Prof. Obasi’s contribution to climate science https://www.climdev-africa.org/content/experts-pay-tribute-late-prof-obasi%E2%80%99s-contribution-climate-science <div class="field field-name-body field-type-text-with-summary field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even" property="content:encoded"><p><img alt="" src="/sites/default/files/images/Obasi.jpg" style="width: 650px; height: 265px;" /></p> <p><strong>Addis Ababa, 20 October, 2016 - </strong>The former Secretary-General of the World Meteorological Organisation (WMO), the late Prof Godwin Patrick Olu Obasi was remembered as a global luminary in the area of climate science at the sixth conference on Climate Change and Development  in Africa (CCDA VI), held here.</p> <p>Speaking at the inauguration of the Prof. Obasi lecture at the CCDA VI, a  panel of Africa’s most prominent climate scientists including; Prof. Laban Ogallo of the IGAD-UNDP Disaster Risk Reduction Project in Kenya, Dr. Buruhani Nyenzi of the Southern Development Community-Climate Services Centre, Dr. Ernest Afiesimama of the World Meteorological Organisation (WMO), Geneva, and Dr. Degefu Workneh of the Ethiopian Meteorological Society praised Prof. Obasi’s outstanding contributions to climate science, education and global environment and science governance.</p> <p>Speaking of the life and times of the icon of meteorology, Prof. Ogallo recalled that Prof. Obasi was active in promoting global solutions to environmental issues, with special attention to the atmosphere, fresh water and the oceans.</p> <p>Prof. Obasi played a key role in the negotiations leading to the establishment of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), the United Nations Convention to Combat Desertification (UNCCD), the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), the World Climate Research Programme, the Global Climate Observing System (GCOS),  the Vienna Convention on the Protection of the Ozone Layer and its Montreal Protocol.</p> <p>Dr. Nyenzi recalled that it was Prof Obasi, together with the then Executive Director of United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), the late Dr. Mostafa Tolba, who initiated the negotiations on the Vienna Convention and the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) and also contributed to the establishment of the UN Convention to Combat Desertification (UNCCD).</p> <p>“Prof. Obasi gave his strong support to the World Climate Research Programme (WCRP), and exercised a key leadership role together with Dr. Tolba, in the establishment of the WMO/UNEP Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).

Representatives of African Small Island Developing States (SIDS) have convened here for a two-day workshop to develop a collaborative framework for support to address the challenges of climate change and manage disaster risks.</p> <p>The workshop is being held at the UNECA Headquarters under the auspices of the Climate for Development Africa (ClimDev-Africa) Programme, a joint initiative of the African Union Commission (AUC), the Africa Development Bank (AfDb) and the Economic Commission for Africa (ECA)  ‘s  African Climate Policy Centre (ACPC) a unit of the UNECA’s Special Initiatives Division (SID), which serves as the Secretariat for the ClimDev-Africa programme responsible for establishing the policy basis of the joint initiative.  </p> <p>The workshop aims to provide African SIDS with support to address the urgent challenges posed by climate change and seize opportunities in emerging areas related to the transition towards blue and green economies that are aligned to development aspirations.  </p> <p>The gathering is a follow up to a scoping mission to Cabo Verde, Union of the Comoros, Guinea Bissau, Mauritius, Seychelles and, São Tomé and Príncipe, undertaken by ACPC upon request from the African SIDS. The mission assessed their climate change adaptation and mitigation needs; identified priority interventions aimed at building country resilience to climate change and the means to address residual loss and damage.</p> <p>Africa’s six SIDS are highly vulnerable to climate change and related extreme weather-induced disasters that make it difficult for them to attain their development goals. </p> <p>“The impact of climate-related extreme events is likely to increase as the effect of climate change intensifies, but there is also much that is and can be done to build resilience to climate change in these six countries,” says  Fatima Denton, Director of the Special Initiatives Division.  “There is a need to develop capacity to undertake effective long-term dynamic adaptation planning and implement decision-making mechanisms to manage multi-sectoral risks that they face and enable SIDS to make their transitions to blue and green economies,” she said.</p> <p>It is anticipated that a joint work programme will be developed at the end of the workshop linking the priority SIDS needs to the ClimDev Africa programme of work as a precursor to the latter providing concrete support to African SIDS to effectively manage the risks of climate change and also in anticipation of the momentous COP 21 where a successor treaty to Kyoto will be decided.</p> <p>The ClimDev-Africa programme was established to create a solid data, analysis, technical and capacity building support foundation to respond to Africa’s climate change challenges and opportunities.</p> <p><span>For further information please contact:<br /> Jacqueline Chenje<br /> Communications Officer<br /> African Climate Policy Centre (ACPC), UNECA</span><br /> <span>Tel: +251-11-544-3489<br /> Mob: +251</span>-9-441-20698</p> </div></div></div> Wed, 08 Apr 2015 15:31:12 +0000 murayac 2127 at https://www.climdev-africa.org https://www.climdev-africa.org/content/african-islands-meet-address-climate-change-and-disaster-risk-challenges#comments Upgrade of hydrological observation networks moves ahead in Ethiopia https://www.climdev-africa.org/content/upgrade-hydrological-observation-networks-moves-ahead-ethiopia <div class="field field-name-body field-type-text-with-summary field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even" property="content:encoded"><p><img alt="" src="/sites/default/files/images/hydro%20equipment%20in%20Omo-Gibe.jpg" style="width: 640px; height: 265px;" /></p> <p><strong>Addis Ababa</strong>, Ethiopia 20th November 2014 (UNECA) – In early September 2014, a team of climate information services experts from the African Climate Policy Center (ACPC) accompanied counterparts from the Ministry of Water, Irrigation and Energy (MoWIE) to the Omo-Gibe region of Ethiopia to launch the installation of hydrological equipment supplied by UNECA. The equipment is provided within the scope of a project funded by UNECA to upgrade hydro-metrological observation networks in the country. The installation of hydrometric instruments will cover the Omo-Gibe and other River basins of Ethiopia.</p> <p>Under the auspices of the Climate Change for Development in Africa (ClimDev-Africa) initiative, ACPC is undertaking the project with MoWIE with the aim of strengthening the country’s ability to better plan for the utilization of its water resources, respond to water stresses brought about by climate change, and build the capacity of hydrology and water quality department of the Ministry of Water, irrigation and Energy of Ethiopia.</p> <p>Science-informed and evidence-based policy, planning, and practice are essential in ensuring that development is more climate-resilient and less vulnerable to the expected negative impacts of climate change and in fostering sustainable development. In Africa, however, the acquisition, development and use of climate and hydrological information is very weak.</p> <p>Ethiopia is one of African countries that are highly vulnerable to climate change and climate variability. Extreme weather events are expected to increase with climate change. Climate information is essential for development planning, adaptation to climate change and establishing early warning systems for extreme weather events. Planning that is strongly backed by quality climate observation data is a prerequisite for production of climate advisories that benefit local communities.</p> <p>Existing coverage of climate observation network in Ethiopia is below the level recommended by the World Meteorological Organization. Ethiopia has a complex topography and requires a dense station network to improve the quality of weather and climate services.</p> <p>Prior to the installation of the hydrological equipment, a five day long training was provided to experts and technicians of hydrology department of MoWIE on installation, operation and troubleshooting of hydrometric and telemetry instruments.</p> <p>Issued by the United Nations Economic Commission for Africa (UNECA)</p> </div></div></div> Fri, 28 Nov 2014 14:51:58 +0000 murayac 2078 at https://www.climdev-africa.org https://www.climdev-africa.org/content/upgrade-hydrological-observation-networks-moves-ahead-ethiopia#comments Highlight on the “Future Risks and Opportunities for Adaptation in Africa” from the Summary of the IPCC AR5 WGII for the Policymaker https://www.climdev-africa.org/document/highlight-%E2%80%9Cfuture-risks-and-opportunities-adaptation-africa%E2%80%9D-summary-ipcc-ar5-wgii-0 <div class="field field-name-field-attachment field-type-file field-label-above"><div class="field-label">Attachment:&nbsp;</div><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><span class="file"><img class="file-icon" alt="PDF icon" title="application/pdf" src="/modules/file/icons/application-pdf.png" /> <a href="https://www.climdev-africa.org/sites/default/files/DocumentAttachments/Future%20Risks%20and%20Opportunities%20for%20Africa%20from%20AR5%20WGII%20EN.pdf" type="application/pdf;
