Description
There are many challenges preventing climate services from achieving full value proposition, including the incorporation of social and behavioural factors, local needs, knowledge and end-user customs. The EU-funded I-CISK project will work with end users to co-create pre-operational CS providing a step-change in integrating local knowledge, perception and preferences with scientific knowledge. The novelty here is that the CS will be based on a highly customisable cloud-based web platform developed by the project team. I-CISK will work in seven living labs in Europe, neighbouring countries and Africa.
