Co-producing climate information for Windhoek decision making
The FRACTAL project developed three Climate Risk Narratives (CRNs) for Windhoek to translate complex climate projections into non-technical, actionable scenarios for the 2040s. These narratives—ranging from 'much hotter and drier' to 'warmer with similar rainfall'—were co-produced through 'Learning Labs' involving scientists, city officials, and stakeholders. The CRNs served as 'boundary objects' to facilitate dialogue and inform the City of Windhoek's Integrated Climate Change Strategy and Action Plan (ICCSAP). Findings highlight critical vulnerabilities in water security due to increased evaporation and the disproportionate impact of flooding on informal settlements.
