Climate services for agriculture: Steering towards inclusive innovation in Australian climate services design and delivery
Highlights
-
Explores the challenges of steering a largescale climate services innovation project towards greater inclusivity.
-
Maximising customisation options for users and avoiding prescriptive interpretation enables greater flexibility of use.
-
Responsible and inclusive approaches to climate services design are valuable even if adopted once development has commenced.
CONTEXT
Climate services are integral to climate change adaptation in agriculture. Inclusive innovation prioritises inclusion of marginalised actors, grassroots knowledge and accessibility of use. Yet many innovation processes are multi-stakeholder, complex and may not prioritise inclusion from the outset. In these circumstances, researchers and designers may seek to influence existing projects towards greater inclusivity.
