A climate atlas for Ghana can support these farmers to make smart choices about crop types and harvest time, for instance. This can ultimately ensure higher and more consistent yields. We are therefore developing a climate atlas for Ghana, based on the <a href=\"https:\/\/climateadaptationservices.com\/en\/projecten\/climate-atlas-for-smallholder-farms-in-kenya\/\">atlas<\/a> we made for Kenya. Once we have completed the atlas, we will train officials, extension workers and students at the University for Development Studies (UDS) in Ghana to use and manage this atlas. They can then help smallholder farms in Ghana to adapt their operations to climate change.

This will enable them to help smallholder farmers make choices to adapt their operations to climate change. To achieve this goal, the training has two focal points:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The training should enable UDS employees and students to use and manage the atlas themselves. In the process, they will also learn to choose indicators that best suit the local situation and to find data online themselves. To do so, they are taught about climate change, climate models and data sources.<\/li>\n<li>The training helps UDS employees and students collaborate with different disciplines. In the training, participants form multidisciplinary groups of climate scientists, hydrologists, agricultural experts and ICTs. In this way, they learn to devise innovative solutions to complex issues.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/climateadaptationservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Day3_measures.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-4698\" src=\"https:\/\/climateadaptationservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Day3_measures-1024x683.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" srcset=\"https:\/\/climateadaptationservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Day3_measures-1024x683.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/climateadaptationservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Day3_measures-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/climateadaptationservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Day3_measures-768x512.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/climateadaptationservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Day3_measures-1536x1024.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/climateadaptationservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Day3_measures-2048x1366.jpeg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h3>What is our role in the project?<\/h3>\n<p>We are developing the climate atlas for Ghana ourselves.

With the training, university employees and students learn to use and manage the climate atlas themselves. They learn more about climate change and do joint case studies on a crop of their choice. We keep the training low-key by using freely accessible data from online databases.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/climateadaptationservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Day3_storytelling.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-4671\" src=\"https:\/\/climateadaptationservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Day3_storytelling-1024x683.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" srcset=\"https:\/\/climateadaptationservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Day3_storytelling-1024x683.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/climateadaptationservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Day3_storytelling-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/climateadaptationservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Day3_storytelling-768x512.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/climateadaptationservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Day3_storytelling-1536x1024.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/climateadaptationservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Day3_storytelling-2048x1366.jpeg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h3>What is the purpose of the training?<\/h3>\n<p>The training aims for climate, agriculture, hydrology and ICT professionals in Ghana to have a better understanding of climate change in their region. This will enable them to help smallholder farmers make choices to adapt their operations to climate change. To achieve this goal, the training has two focal points:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The training should enable UDS employees and students to use and manage the atlas themselves. In the process, they will also learn to choose indicators that best suit the local situation and to find data online themselves. To do so, they are taught about climate change, climate models and data sources.<\/li>\n<li>The training helps UDS employees and students collaborate with different disciplines. In the training, participants form multidisciplinary groups of climate scientists, hydrologists, agricultural experts and ICTs. In this way, they learn to devise innovative solutions to complex issues.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/climateadaptationservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Day3_measures.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-4698\" src=\"https:\/\/climateadaptationservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Day3_measures-1024x683.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" srcset=\"https:\/\/climateadaptationservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Day3_measures-1024x683.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/climateadaptationservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Day3_measures-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/climateadaptationservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Day3_measures-768x512.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/climateadaptationservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Day3_measures-1536x1024.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/climateadaptationservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Day3_measures-2048x1366.jpeg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h3>What is our role in the project?<\/h3>\n<p>We are developing the climate atlas for Ghana ourselves.
