Strengthening Research-to-Policy Uptake to Address Climate-Vulnerable Diseases in Sub-Saharan Africa: Stakeholders’ Perspectives
The multitude of climate change-related risks to human health have been described in the scientific literature as the climate-health crisis. This crisis exacerbates long-standing climate-vulnerable diseases including food security, heat-related morbidity and mortality, and exposure to extreme weather events. There are now increased policy efforts across the globe directed at adapting to the health impacts from climate change. This paper provides insights into conducting a consultation workshop in 2021 to strengthen research-to-policy uptake on climate change and health in East and Southern Africa, specifically on national adaptation plan for climate change-related health impacts, reflections on this stakeholder workshop, and the impact of this on new research directions. The primary outcome was that participants recognised the importance of interdisciplinary working and the need for evidence for policy and action on climate-health in sub-Saharan Africa. A strength of the workshop was the variety of stakeholders chosen to participate. They identified existing and planned activities to address the climate-health crisis and established a plausible framework for transdisciplinary working that would allow them to explore the complex and cross-sectoral climate-health nexus. Such a framework would facilitate knowledge co-creation and improve research-to-policy uptake in East and Southern Africa. This process was important to ensure that the engagement was owned by in-country stakeholders.

Understanding Gender in Climate Change Impacts and Adaptation in sub-Saharan Africa: A Review
There is a growing recognition that gender affects climate change outcomes. While a global analysis of climate change policy revealed equal participation results in better outcomes, little attention has been paid to how engagement in climate-change policy work is affecting women from the Global South. This paper investigates lived experiences of women climate-change practitioners working in sub-Saharan Africa, with a view to understand how their experiences can inform how we meaningfully engage more women in Africa in climate change responses. Through use of Virtual Collaborative Framing (VCF) developed by SIK’ Institute (Sweden), the team engaged 30 women climate-change practitioners from sub-Saharan Africa on their experiences of climate change impacts and climate change responses. This research found women are taking on active roles in their communities, often in decision-making spaces, adding to their existing heavy workload. In cities, women are more concerned by the impacts of extreme temperatures, particularly on their household budgets. Despite a relatively strong commitment for gender equality across Africa, women do not feel included in decisions around climate change policy. Equally, many women face daily aggression in their household and work lives. The results suggest that there is a need to fully investigate the unintended impacts of including women in climate change decisions. Through increasing the evidence base of how the climate crisis is affecting women in Africa, the findings of this study aim to influence global conversations on gender in climate change policy and research. The results …

Mediterranean Climate Variability in a Changing Climate
The climate of the Mediterranean region is highly variable and sensitive to shifts due to its peculiar peninsular geographical configuration, the complex orography and its position within the sinking branch of the Hadley cell at the edge of the subtropical belt and in the transition between the temperate subtropical and mid-latitude climates [1]. The alterations in the temperature and hydrological cycle associated with the ongoing climate change have accentuated the vulnerability of this region (eg,[2–5]). During the last century, the Mediterranean area was recognized as a hot spot of climate change [2]often considered a model region for other subtropical zones, and attracted a lot of geopolitical and scientific interest (eg,[6, 7]). In the present Special Issue devoted to the “Mediterranean Climate Variability in a Changing Climate”, studies that put in evidence the high sensitivity of the climate features of the Mediterranean region to shifts in the general circulation patterns and in the associated atmospheric processes at global and regional scales are presented. Rimbu et al.[8] analyze the interannual to multidecadal variability of the Mediterranean climate and suggest that there is a nonuniform temperature and precipitation response in this region at these timescales induced by natural or anthropogenic forcings. Different teleconnection patterns, namely the North Pacific Gyre Oscillation (NPGO) and the Pacific Decadal Oscillation (PDO), are considered as possible mechanisms that trigger the observed climate variability in the European and Middle East regions. Climate models were tested to evaluate the NPGO–winter temperature and precipitation …

Regional climate messages: An approach to communicate climate change information in South Africa
More than three-quarters of South Africa’s weather stations have failed to report data and metadata to international databases. This has rendered South African weather data virtually unusable for scientists wishing to understand local and regional climate change. Unusable data and a lack of awareness of the state of weather stations, sensors and data cause poor decisions based on faulty information, leading to lost opportunities for climate action. To address this need, the South African Weather Service (SAWS), the national meteorological agency responsible for managing weather data, partnered with the South African adaptation non-profit, the South African Climate Service, to co-develop usable climate information for the nine provinces in the form of provincial climate messages. The regional climate messages were co-produced by training carefully selected staff in developing climates messages for provinces …

Climate information services in Africa: situational analysis
One of the main challenges facing the agricultural system today is climate change, a phenomenon that brings out the variability in rainfall (droughts, floods, late-onset rains) and temperature (heat, high temperatures and cold extremes) that negatively affect agriculture (FAO, 2016). Sowing and harvesting periods are also affected by these variations, which strain the capacity of producers to manage food production and therefore to adapt. In Africa, weather and climate variability affects about 70% of farmers and the agricultural value chain (Thornton et al., 2010; Wandji et al., 2016), especially the agricultural input, storage and processing sectors (Jost et al., 2016b). This state of affairs, peculiar to the African context, could be due to the fact that the structuring and development of the agricultural system are based on old climate patterns and assumptions linked to climate variability trends (Sokona and Denton, 2001; Bhattacharjee and Behera, 2016). As the African continent is projected to have the largest population increase, and passing the 1 billion mark in the next 50 years, it is imperative that the agricultural sector grows alongside the population. In context, the effects of climate change are already manifesting in the deterioration of food systems (Bohle et al 1994; Alcamo et al, 2007).Access and availability of weather and climate information services that enable actors in the agricultural sector to anticipate the impacts of climate change and variability, and increase their adaptive capacity, have been identified as technological priorities, particularly for climate change adaptation (FAO, 2010). These services provide information on expected …

Operationalizing co-production: A novel way of providing climate services to city council adaptation planners
As co-production becomes a new normal for climate service development, so have methodologies evolved for selecting key informants in the most appropriate way. There are numerous ways to do this, but specifically in the decision-making sphere, senior level to middle level managers, community, students etc. are approached, for inform co-production projects. Their high-level knowledge and usability of a climate service, impacts and beliefs of climate change are the key areas of focus. In this instance we first invited the Manager for Infrastructure Planning and Coordination in National Government for an interview to co-develop a climate service. During this process, due to the high-level nature of knowledge and experiences in this level, more detailed and in-depth questions could be asked around the required usability aspects and functions that a climate service. We then designed questionnaires around this …

Innovating research approaches for providing co-produced climate information in Limpopo, South Africa
Research underpinning climate communication utilizes top-down approaches, is equity blind, and lacks relevant co-produced climate information. This study aimed to adopt an equitable approach resulting in a co-produced climate service in Limpopo, a region experiencing high impacts from climate hazards. This project utilized Community Based Adaptation methods for engaging with citizens who are effective at cutting across language barriers and information gaps using a ‘train-the-trainer’ component which empowers community members to train one another, decreasing reliance of civil society on government. This method also uses intermediaries, in this case, the Department of Agriculture and Rural Development (DARD) and the water boards in the region, to obtain this information to farmers and citizens of Limpopo, and therefore could continue to implement the service beyond the project. The service was …

Background: Peru and its region of Ica have been identified as highly vulnerable toclimate change (Baca et al., 2011), and specifically to the risk of scarcity of water resources and the threat of serious desertification that entails serious implications for the possibilities of poverty reduction in low income areas and regions of Peru. Peruvian agriculture is predominantly rainfed and highly vulnerable to climate variability and climate change. The situation is exacerbated by high technology requirements, high capital investments and fluid relations with social and economic agents in the course of agricultural production. The main intervention will be to utilize the expertise of the Department of Geography of Leeds University, the Department of Geography of the Pontifica Universidad Católica del Perú and the Peruvian Society of Environmental Law to strengthen understanding and demand-driven provision to enhance adaptation capacity to climate variability and climate change in Peru. 3.

Learning across Indigenous and Western knowledge systems and intersectionality: Lessons and recommendations from a collaborative scholarship on climate change in the Northern …
Addressing the challenges of climate change and its associated governance requires collaboration and learning across diverse forms of knowledge. To deliberately set up a collaborative research context to do so, we convene a group of researchers that includes diverse Indigenous Lived Experience Experts, academic Knowledge Holders, Collaborators, Facilitators, and allies. Through iterative discussions, the group interacts and identifies a transformational journey to centre and honour Indigenous knowledge and experiences. We conclude with recommendations and a hopeful vision for future work that involve purposeful decolonizing intervention to be able to better respond to climate change.

Communities of Practice and Social Learning Systems: The Career of a Concept (Originally Published in 2000 in Organization, 7 (2), 225–246)
The idea that learning involves a deepening process of participation in a community of practice has gained significant ground in recent years. Communities of practice have also become associated with strategic debate about human resource management. However, strong emphasis has been placed on the idea of naturally occurring communities of practice. This article attempts to develop the concept of a community of practice in a manner that can assist with the practical development of deliberate and intended communities of practice. Although not always labelled as such, the article explains how the concept is increasingly being ‘put to work’ and outlines two examples of a community of practice approach.

Future Climate Projections for Zimbabwe
Zimbabwe is located in south-central Africa between the Zambezi and Limpopo Rivers. It has a land area of just over 59,365,000 hectares and 600km2 of inland water. About 90% of the population is Christian in religion. The majority of the local population speaks Shona and Ndebele and these languages are understood at national level. The 2002 national census (CSO 2002), reported a population of about 12 million inhabitants in Zimbabwe with approximately 90% of these being Africans. The population is largely rural with 70% of Zimbabweans living in rural areas by 2003. The Zimbabwe Human Settlements Policy classifies settlements into four main categories namely Service Centres, Low Order Urban Centres, Rural Service Centres and Consolidated Villages (Government of Zimbabwe 2015).
