<p><strong>In this Episode we explore the concept of the climate services value chain - the idea that climate information is produced by scientists and then fed down a chain of intermediaries who tailor or transform it, until it reaches its intended “end” user." This user then incorporates that information into decision making. Within the climate services community, this idea is a common conceptualisation of how climate services works. In this episode, Anna Steynor talks to Chris Jack, Mark Tadross and Alice McClure as they explore the concept of a value chain and whether it works in practice.</strong></p> <p><strong>If you would like to know more, subscribe to the Climate Frontiers Podcast on Apple or Spotify, or wherever you find your podcasts.</strong></p> <p><strong>You can also subscribe to the CSAG newsletter at&nbsp;</strong><a href="http://www.csag.uct.ac.za/csag-newsletter/"><u><strong>www.csag.uct.ac.za/csag-newsletter/</strong></u></a><strong>.</strong></p>
