为了在基层使用气候信息，需要对其进行理解、集体解释和有效沟通。参与式情景规划（PSP）是一种根据当地小尺度天气（通常是季节性预报）为决策者共同提供有用且可用的部门和生计咨询的方法。本章概述了对 PSP 在马拉维的历史和应用的初步调查，发现它可以生成有用且可用的信息，这些信息被其目标用户视为可信、合法和显着。它的可用性通过示范效应得到加强，即使是持怀疑态度的农民在目睹了早期采用者的有效性证明后也采用了它。在马拉维，由于规划框架的整合有限和对项目的依赖，公共服务计划的可持续性受到威胁，因此需要一种机制来确保其定期发生并嵌入正式治理结构。
For climate information to be used at the grassroots level, it needs to be understood, collectively interpreted and effectively communicated. Participatory Scenario Planning (PSP) is one method of co-producing useful and usable sectoral and livelihood advisories for decision-makers, based on locally downscaled weather (typically seasonal forecasts). The chapter outlines an initial investigation into the history and application of PSP in Malawi, finding that it can generate useful and usable information that is deemed credible, legitimate and salient by its intended users. Its usability is reinforced through the demonstration effect which leads to even sceptical farmers adopting it after they have witnessed proof of its effectiveness from early adopters. In Malawi, the sustainability of PSP is threatened due to limited integration in planning frameworks and reliance on projects, hence need for a mechanism to ensure its regular occurrence and embeddedness in formal governance structures.
