Abstract

The ACToday Columbia World Project adopted climate information tools and innovations in its efforts to help target countries advance SDG-2: ending hunger, through improved climate services and risk management. The online climate information "Maproom" tools, based on high-quality gridded meteorological data, were developed earlier by CCAFS and IRI to meet agricultural decision-making needs. As a result, localized climate information and analyses are now available to the 30 million agricultural work force of Bangladesh, Colombia and Guatemala.
