Weather and Climate Science for Service Partnership (WCSSP) programme

The Met Office develops strong, sustainable partnerships between UK and local research organisations to strengthen the resilience of vulnerable communities to weather and climate variability and prepare for a changing climate.

The Weather and Climate Science for Service Partnership (WCSSP) programme is developing a global network of projects and partnerships that harness the scientific expertise needed to strengthen the resilience of vulnerable communities to weather and climate variability. WCSSP projects aim to develop strong international partnerships, connecting the best scientific expertise.

Through the programme, the Met Office and other UK institutions collaborate with organisations in Brazil, China, India, South Africa and South East Asia.
