This presentation discusses modelling climate data across Africa, a region known for its diversity in terms of climate and fast change in environmental conditions. We will concentrate on the challenges and opportunities this large geographical landscape that the continent bequeaths us with. We will go down to methodological approaches of collecting, analysing, and interpreting climate data while showing the importance of localised models for accurate predictions. Case studies will be presented to illustrate these models' application in addressing climate issues: drought, floods, and food security. The participants will be taken through the present technological advances for climate modelling and its implications for sustainable development in Africa.
