World Meteorological Organization Working together in weather, climate and water WMO Review of relevant documents to the WMO capacity development activities www.wmo.int Strategic Plan (2012-2015) Strategic Thrust 3 Expected Result 6 Strategic Plan (2012-2015) Strategic Thrust 3 encompasses: • The need to improve infrastructure and systems operated by NMHSs • The need to improve human resources Strategic Plan (2012-2015) The main objectives of Strategic Thrust are to a) b) c) d) e) f) Focus attention on the education and training needs of NMHSs Increase awareness of the socio-economic benefits of NMHSs Assist NMHS managers in effective communication with stakeholders Assess and address NMHS training needs Expand the number of strategic partnerships Enhance resource mobilization Technical Commissions Technical Commission (CBS) CBS CIMO CHy CAS CAeM CAgM CCl JCOMM Areas for capacity building: • • • • • • GOS. WIS and WIGOS Data processing and Forecasting Systems SWFDP Ensemble Prediction Systems and Applications PWS Methods to consider include: • E-learning as an efficient and cost-effective tool in training NMHS staff. Commission for Basic Systems Abridged report,2009 Technical Commission (CIMO) CBS The Commission: CIMO • encouraged regional associations to inform CHy CIMO on the needs for capacity-building CAS CAeM activities to support their Regional CAgM Instrument Centres. CCl JCOMM Commission for Instruments and Methods of Observation Abridged report,2010 Technical Commission (CHy) CBS WMO Strategy on Education and Training in CIMO Hydrology and Water Resources (2009CHy 2012) is in place CAS CAeM Objectives of the Strategy are to: CAgM a) Assist Members in assessing their own education CCl and training needs in HWR; JCOMM b) Provide adequate education and training to personnel of the NHSs; c) Assist Members in developing/updating national curricula in HWR; d) Optimize the use of available resources and mobilize extrabudgetary resources. Commission for Hydrology Abridged report,2008 Technical Commission (CAS) CBS The goals of the GAW capacity-building CIMO efforts are to: CHy a) Conduct GAW training and education CAS CAeM activities in developing countries for CAgM “start-up” training and beyond including CCl workshops JCOMM b) Promote twinning relationships between countries with less experienced station personnel and established atmospheric scientists Commission for Atmospheric Sciences Abridged report,2009 Technical Commission (CAeM) A Coordinated and WMO-wide effort CBS CIMO required to successfully implement the CHy Standards for the qualification and CAS competencies of personnel in AeM. CAeM Essential CB components for implementation CAgM CCl would be JCOMM a) A combination of approached (train the trainers, blended learning etc) b) Resource mobilization c) Intensive cooperation with training institutions d) Intelligent use of modern communication methods Commission for Aeronautical Meteorology Abridged report,2010 Technical Commission (CAgM) CBS • Training and education in AgM are of great CIMO importance to Members, particularly LDCS CHy and developing countries. CAS CAeM • The need for new guidelines for curricula in CAgM AgM. CCl JCOMM Commission for Agricultural Meteorology Abridged report,2010 Technical Commission (CCl) CBS CIMO CHy CAS CAeM CAgM CCl JCOMM A comprehensive CB strategy and implementation plan needed. CCl CB strategy should have the following core components: a) b) c) d) Institutional mandate in climatology Establishing and strengthening climate infrastructure Human resource development Qualification and certification of climatologists Approach a) b) Resource mobilization Development of an action plan Commission for Climatology Abridged report,2010 Technical Commission (JCOMM) CBS CIMO CHy CAS CAeM CAgM CCl JCOMM Areas for Capacity Building: a) b) c) Marine Safety Coastal Hazard Forecasting Ocean Forecasting Approach a) b) c) d) Training workshop Summer School Publication of training materials Development of an action plan Joint Technical Commission for Oceanography and Marine Meteorology CBS CIMO CHy CAS CAeM CAgM CCl JCOMM Technical Commissions (Summary) Overall approach • • Some Commissions are taking strategic approach. Others rather ad-hoc Components • • Identification of Gaps in Capacity Infrastructure and Human capacity Method • • Education and Training, including Guidelines Resource Mobilization Regional Associations Regional Association I RA RA RA RA RA RA I II III IV V VI Overall • • Capacity building for policy makers Development on human and institutional resources in NMHSs. Areas for Capacity Building Observation, analysis and application of weather, water and climate information to development Regional approach would be beneficial. RA I Strategic Plan 2012-2015 Regional Association II RA RA RA RA RA RA Regional Outcomes corresponding to WMO I II Expected Results 6. III • The formulation of capacity assessment and IV development plan V Maintenance of highly-qualified staff VI • • Maintenance/implementation of a structured training plan • Access and use of e-learning materials • Professional certification of Staff Continuous education programmes • etc RA II Strategic and Operating Plan 2011-2015 Regional Association III RA RA RA RA RA RA I II III IV V VI Overall approach • • • • Maximize the use of exciting cacabilities in the region Strengthen the capacities of all members Regional approach Cooperation with other regions. RA III Strategic Plan 2011-2014 Regional Association IV RA RA RA RA RA RA I II III IV V VI RA IV strategic plan aims to a) b) c) d) develop resources and expertise to produce weather services and products develop climate services strengthen services related to: disaster mitigation and prevention; environmental monitoring; hydrology and water-related assessment and management Upgrade and modernize their services including infrastructure, technology and human resources RA IV Strategic Plan 2011-2014 Regional Association V RA RA RA RA RA RA Regional Outcomes corresponding to WMO I II Expected Results 6. III • Regional and national meteorological and IV hydrological services are more effective V Education and Training Development activities at VI • national and regional levels are improved • Donor funding is coordinated and effective RA V Strategic and Operating Plan 2012-2015 Regional Association VI RA RA RA RA RA RA I There is a need to build capacity in II order to meet the increasing III demands for more comprehensive IV V services, and CB will be done by VI a) Assessing the gaps in knowledge and capabilities to meet requirements; b) Setting up the appropriate collective actions/projects to fill the gaps; c) Ensuring that the Region and its NMHSs have the right people with the right skills to achieve their objectives.
