OBS: Initially this programme was called the World Climate Impact Studies Programme (WCIP), overall objective of which was to assess the sensitivity of socio-economic sectors to climate variability and change. In 1991, additional task of developing options for socio-economic response strategies related to climate variability and change was added to the programme. The main thrusts of WCIRP include: (i) testing of methodologies for national climate impact and sea level rise assessment; (ii) providing coordination of national climate impact and response strategies programmes; (iii) improved techniques for making inventories of sources and sinks of greenhouse gases; (iv) developing techniques for national response strategies; (v) improving public information; and (vi) air quality assessment and air pollution mitigation strategies.
