GFCS Office in collaboration with the Turkish State Meteorological Service (TSMS) and the National Meteorological Service of Spain (AEMET) organized the Regional Consultation on Climate Services at the National Level for South East Europe from 21 to 22 November 2014 in Antalya, Turkey.

This workshop brought together experts from the National Meteorological and Hydrological Services (NMHSs) and the key decision-makers, and practitioners from the initial four priority areas of the GFCS. It facilitated the identification of appropriate mechanisms and networks to improve and sustain the flow of climate information for different users. Specifically, it resulted in: (i) enhanced understanding of the needs for climate services in different user sectors; (ii) improved knowledge of the existing interface mechanisms and recommendations for improvements where needed; (iii) clear understanding of capacity development needs to implement the GFCS at regional and national levels; (iv) strategic guidance on institutional arrangements, partnerships and processes required to operationalize the GFCS at the regional and national level.
