National Endorsement Workshop on the National Framework for Climate Services in the Republic of Moldova

The NFCS concept and the action plan were presented to key NFCS stakeholders during the one-day NFCS endorsement workshop on 6 December 2018. The objectives of the workshop were to discuss the NFCS Concept and the measures proposed in the action plan, help prioritise them, and obtain specific stakeholder feedback as well as inputs for additional measures that could be included in the framework. An additional objective was to further share the experiences, perspectives and inspiration from developing climate services both globally (as seen by the World Meteorological Organization) and nationally (among others, the experience of Switzerland was presented).
The workshop consisted of a half-day plenary segment and work in breakout groups, the results of which, as well as next steps for NFCS implementation, were summarised and discussed at the end of the day. More than 50 participants took part in the event, representing both the users and the producers of climate information among national, local and regional authorities (including the autonomous territorial unit of Gagauzia and the Transnistrian region), NGOs, academia, research and business.
