Bonizella Biagini - The Last Mile
1. The Last Mile:
Saving lives, improving livelihoods and increasing
resiliency with tailored weather information services
Dr. Bonizella Biagini
CIRDA Manager
15 March 2016
Livingstone, Zambia
2. Support focused on
• Data and tech transfer
• Identify and reach end users
• Mainstream/integrate data into
development planning (NAPs)
• Financial sustainability planning
Provides support to 11 countries.
Objectives
• Support climate services in their
efforts to collect, analyse and
disseminate climate information for
long term planning and adaptation
• Meet the need to generate timely,
high quality climate information that
is comprehensible and applicable to
end users
• Enable communities and policy
makers to access climate information

5. General Challenges
5
Building
Capacity
Growing need for
capacity building and
specialized training
Need for procurement
support and other
services, including
communication
Partnerships
Lack of institutional
coordination and
information exchange,
including resources
management
Identifying
complementary roles
of governments,
private sector and civil
society
Absence of regional
cooperation even
among neighboring
countries
Technology
and Services
Going beyond
hardware and
observations to
forecasts and
applications
Understanding and
accessing innovative
technologies and
services, know how
and software
Limited tools available
in countries to
package and
communicate
information sectorally
for access to end users
6. Current Challenges
Status of implementation:
Some countries are still in the process of acquiring technology that forms
the basis for climate information and early warnings
Most countries that have acquired the technology have not yet
transformed the basic observations from their systems into useful and
actionable information
Next steps: weather and climate observations to be included into:
Weather and climate forecasts
Fundamental input to the NAPs
Public “Last Mile” products and services (early warnings), and
Private “Last Mile” products and services (sustainability applications)

Goals of this Workshop
1. Now we increasingly have the data collection.
2. How can we transform data to information, and communicate the last
mile to help vulnerable communities?
This is how:
• Explore pathways to make the data available to end users through local
networks, technology, and partnerships, including identification of end
users’ needs
• Consider market opportunities in the form of new weather products and
services with the benefit of a Market Study in the 11 partner countries
• Explore relationships and partnerships with private weather services,
NGOs, and others that can help national climate services reach the Last
Mile – and become more sustainable
• With technical support, work on country strategies for the next phase of
the CIRDA program to reach end users and get to last mile
• Engage with software developers here in a “hackathon” to design and
develop new applications to transform and communicate weather data to
end users

BONI BEFORE PRESENTING PLEASE READ METHODOLOGICAL NOTE OF CAPACITY SCORE
Capacity scores are result from PIR Evaluations presented on October 2015 When referring to capacity, we include the capacity to: (1) produce information; (2) package information; (3) disseminate information; and (4) ensure that the legislative and governance frameworks are conducive to the good functioning of EWS and effective responses to emergency situations.
Boni, I reorganized the challenge slide into 3 major categories. In terms of organizational the first topic is important it is not just that they have limited resources but also that governments don’t understand their relevance. Also that these NHMSs are not really prepared to fundraise be it by limited mandates or jus tlimited capacity. In terms of the last box in technological it means more in the fact that these countries have not looked into these technologies. So although the tools exist they just don’t currently have them in country.
This is basically building from our past workshops: First we discussed technologies (Addis Expo) then forecasting and data (Tanzania), then we discussed PPPs, partnerships and audiences. Now we discuss how to reach them
