The 43rd Greater Horn of Africa Climate Outlook Forum (GHACOF43) will be held in Naivasha, Kenya from 30 to 31 May 2016. The theme of the forum will be “Preparedness for Post- El Niño Impacts in the Greater Horn of Africa”. One of the side events will focus on the implication of the seasonal climate forecasts to Disaster Risk Management for prevention and mitigation of likely impacts.

The Regional Climate Outlook Forums (RCOFs) are being organized in many parts of the world since 1997. RCOFs are organized by Regional Climate Centres (RCCs) in collaboration with the World Meteorological Organization (WMO), National Meteorological and Hydrological Services (NMHSs), Global Climate Centres (GCC) and development partners. The aim of the RCOFs is to provide consensus regional seasonal climate outlooks for applications in climate sensitive socio economic sectors for sustainable development.
