Project ID 513GLO2050

The main objective of this project is to improve the ability to forecast hydro-climatic extremes, such as droughts and floods, and to develop, test and evaluate the use of citizen and open science methodologies to build water resilience against climate change and improve water management in pilot countries of Sub-Saharan Africa and Latin America. Furthermore, using citizen science and open science with new observations and developing new analysis techniques and models with approaches such as CRIDA, the project aims to encourage involvement of local stakeholders in scientific data collection and knowledge generation for hydrological sciences and water resources planning and management.
