Abstract

Climate services are high in the international agenda for their potential to help combat the effects of climate change. However, climate science is rarely directly incorporated in the decision-making processes of societal actors, due to what has been identified as the usability gap. The cause behind this gap is partially due to a failure to timely and meaningfully engage users in the production of climate services, as well as misperceptions on which users can best benefit from climate service uptake. In this article we propose user selection and engagement guidelines that integrate important values from participatory science such as those of legitimacy, representativity and agency. The guidelines consist of 5 + 1 steps: defining the why, where, whom, which attributes, which intensity, and how to select and engage with stakeholders. Whilst these steps may be initially implemented by an ideally interdisciplinary team of scientists and service designers, the final step consists of an iterative process by which each decision is agreed together with the identified users and stakeholders under a co-production approach. We believe this systematic user selection and engagement practice is key to support the design of climate services aligned to the actual needs of a wide and inclusive range of empowered societal agents.

气候服务联合制作的用户选择和参与
气候服务因其帮助应对气候变化影响的潜力而在国际议程中占据重要地位。然而,由于可用性差距,气候科学很少被直接纳入社会行为者的决策过程。造成这一差距的部分原因是未能及时和有意义地让用户参与到气候服务的生产中来,以及对哪些用户可以从气候服务的吸收中获得最大利益存在误解。在本文中,我们提出了用户选择和参与指南,这些指南整合了参与科学的重要价值,如合法性、代表性和代理。该指南由5 + 1步骤组成:定义为什么,在哪里,谁,哪些属性,哪些强度,以及如何选择和参与利益相关者。虽然这些步骤最初可能由科学家和服务设计师组成的理想跨学科团队实施,但最后一步包括一个迭代过程,通过该过程,每个决策都在共同生产的方法下与确定的用户和利益相关者一起达成一致。我们认为,这种系统的用户选择和参与实践是支持气候服务设计的关键,这些服务与广泛而包容的社会主体的实际需求相一致。
