The document evaluates the application of the SEI Tandem framework through a two-year project in Edem Ani, Enugu State, Nigeria. It identifies gaps in local climate information, such as the lack of soil maps and meteorological equipment, and suggests improvements to the framework, including better identification of beneficiaries and increased focus on policy coherence across government levels.

The document examines a two-year project in Nigeria aimed at strengthening the capacity of farmers and government officials to use climate information for agricultural decision-making. By applying the Tandem framework retrospectively, the author identifies the need to distinguish between direct users (farmers) and institutional users (government, NGOs), and suggests that co-production processes should explicitly address the costs of short-term coping strategies and the potential opportunities arising from climate change. The analysis emphasizes improving vertical and horizontal policy coordination across different levels of government to enhance the effectiveness of climate services.
