RIMES training program targets a diverse audience, from development workers, resource managers, disaster risk managers, forecasters, planners, administrators, and policymakers. RIMES experts and scientists conduct regular and tailored courses, based on their extensive experience in the fields of numerical weather prediction, hydrology, early warning, disaster risk reduction, climate risk management, and development.
RIMES' training courses are:
Innovative and the first of their kind in introducing novel tools, practices, strategies, and frameworks
Comprehensive in that they integrate the latest scientific developments into established concepts and principles from various communities of practice and/or disciplines, including resource management and disaster risk reduction
Practical for their focus on the application of concepts
Engaging as they include a support network with which participants can optionally avail of
Expert-driven in that they are facilitated by an institution (i.e. RIMES and its partners) that relate scientific, institutional and societal aspects of disaster risks
RIMES' training courses are:
Upcoming courses
Risk Management in a Changing Climate – Disaster Risk Management
Risk Management in a Changing Climate – Agriculture
Risk Management in a Changing Climate – Water Resources
Risk Management in a Changing Climate – Infrastructure
Risk Management in a Changing Climate – Public Health
Risk Management in a Changing Climate – Environment
Risk Management in a Changing Climate – Development Planning
The Fourth Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change provided indisputable evidence of a warming climate. A changing climate means changes in current risk patterns and, accordingly, in risk management strategies. This training course series shall train participants to analyze and manage climate-related risks in agriculture, water resources, infrastructure, public health, and the environment. Participants shall be introduced to the process of interpreting weather and climate forecast products and climate change scenarios, and translating these into impact outlooks and risk management plans.
