Climate Frontiers Podcast Series
This podcast series presents an accessible perspective on topics often hidden behind academic language. Through conversations with researchers and partners across Africa and internationally, the series covers a range of topics within physical climate science, through to social science and philosophy.
Co-producing climate information for Windhoek decision making
This working paper provides an overview of a project that sought to co-produce, communicate and share climate change information to improve decision-making processes for adaptation in Windhoek, Namibia.

A framework for co-designing “transdisciplinary knowledge integration processes”
This paper seeks to reconceptualize climate services in light of the prevailing inability of existing climate information to spur needed policy and action. It focusses on the transdisciplinary knowledge co-production process rather than the output of a climate services product.
Co-exploratory climate risk workshops
The paper describes a place-based co-exploratory analysis of climate risks.
Framework for needs-informed research
This paper presents a framework for needs-informed research aimed at understanding the climate processes driving the African climate system's natural variability and response to global change.
City government-research partnerships
This briefing note provides reflections on city government-research partnerships, from Cape Town and Johannesburg.
Transdisciplinarity, co-production, and co-exploration
This working paper presents the concepts of transdisciplinarity, knowledge co-production, and coexploration and their challenges, and how they are being operationalised in FRACTAL.
Learning within & about climate science
This briefing note provides key discussion points on the role of learning in integrating climate science into decision making.
Climate Information Distillation
This briefing note presents a distillation framework: an attempt to re-think how we go about constructing information to inform decisions.
Climate Adaptation Services
Climate Adaptation Services (CAS) specializes in combining information about climate change with innovative communication and visualization techniques including story maps, apps and websites.
ProSus #3: Building resilience in southern African cities
The third issue of START’s ProSus Magazine features reflections, research and stories from the Future Resilience for African Cities and Lands (FRACTAL) program.
