S 6 WP 5.2 Dissemination & outreach

S 7 Goal: dissemination of robust climate information meeting the expectations and needs of relevant stakeholders, and allowing their involvement in the decision making process To achieve the goal of interactive dissemination, a 3-step approach will be taken: (1)Identifying user-needs (2)Develop a climate service plan where users’ needs and capabilities of NACLIM are matched (3)Dissemination of results by way of electronic media, workshops and conferences: WP 5.2 Outreach, dissemination and climate services

S 8 User and stakeholder needs will be identified during end-user workshops Goal: create a bridge between scientific institutions and potential end-users Target Decision-makers, the private sector, the industrial sector (GIM, VITO, support UHAM)* International climate science community (ICPO, support UHAM)* Planned (minimum) 1 st Workshop: Understanding users’ needs (July 2013) 2 nd Workshop: Providing interesting data to our users (latest July 2015) Points to be defined *Support of ECOMS partners?

S 11 WP 5.3 ECOMS (Cooperation with SPECS and EUPORIAS)

S 12 NACLIM project has been clustered by the European Commission with two other complementary projects, EUPORIAS and SPECS, under the European initiative for climate service observation and modelling (ECOMS) Goals: 1- Ensuring close coordination in Europe in the area of seasonal to decadal climate predictions towards climate services 2- Providing thought leadership to the European Commission on future priorities in the area of seasonal to decadal climate predictions towards climate services European initiative for climate service observation and modelling (ECOMS)

S 13 Two targets for ECOMS A) Joint dissemination and communication activities, for improving the outreach of results of the three projects B) Establishment of a „think tank“ What ECOMS is supposed to achieve

S 14 Tools A) Tools joint dissemination

S 15 Task? Make recommendations to the European Commission for priorities on European activities related to observation, modelling and climate services. Think tank made up of: three coordinators of EUPORIAS, NACLIM and SPECS (Chris Hewitt, Detlef Quadfasel and Paco Doblas-Reyes) independent advisors Three working groups (WG) will be established within this work package for coordinating the discussion: -WG 1 "Observations and monitoring", led by NACLIM -WG 2 "Modeling and infrastructure", led by SPECS -WG 3 "User/Stakeholder engagement", led by EUPORIAS B) The think tank
