Curso sobre la Gestión de Riesgos Climáticos: Una herramienta para su valoración

The IICA-EUROCLIMA Project conducted this past November a course on: Climate Risk Management: A tool for evaluation, which is modeled after the experience developed in Costa Rica as an example of adapting agriculture to climate change. The aim was to show the importance of systematization of meteorological data and applications for use in planning sectoral activities promoting the development of these similar tools in other countries.

Now this course is available for virtual and free on: http://bit.ly/1F0h8an. Among the exhibitors and content authors include:

• Dr. Allan Lavell, risk management specialist, recently won the UN Sasakawa Award

The course features videos, documents, tutorials and examples, as lived in the present event.
