Climate Risk Assessment (CRA) is an integral to sustainable and climate resilient water resources (WR) development. It is even more so in warmer and wetter future with increase in climatic extremes, given the uncertainties on their cumulative impacts on the hydrological processes that influence WR systems performance. Motivation behind this project was to provide easy and accessible platform to WR practitioners to perform CRA, linking science to practice.

Major objective of the project was to facilitate climate risk assessment (CRA) for water resources practitioners. Specific objectives were:

1. To facilitate CRA through upgrade of existing WECCS-Gen tool with climate downscaling capabilities;
2. To build capacity of WR practitioners (national and international) on conducting CRA, using upgraded state-of-the-art tool, into their professional practices; and
3. To promote CRA into existing practices at organisational and national level
