Building the I-CISK Platform: Connecting Science and Local Knowledge for Climate Services
The I-CISK project is developing a cloud-based web platform to bridge the gap between scientific climate data and the practical needs of local communities. This platform aims to provide accessible and tailored climate services (CS) to stakeholders in various sectors such as agriculture, tourism, and policymaking.
Why is this important?
Currently, a lot of valuable research on climate change and adaptation strategies isn’t easily available or understandable for the people who need it most. I-CISK aims to change that by combining scientific data with local knowledge and experiences.
Hello everyone! My name is Ludovic, and I am excited to share my internship experience at 52°North. Over three months, I had the incredible opportunity to dive deep into geospatial innovation, tackle exciting challenges, and grow both professionally and personally. I come from Mbouda, a city in the West region of Cameroon, which is uniquely situated near the majestic Mount Bamboutos (2,740 metres high). This iconic mountain, rich in biodiversity and cultural heritage, is a natural treasure. Growing up in such a place has deeply inspired my passion for geography and geospatial technologies.
