Journalists–Scientists Dialogue on El Niño and the October–December 2026 Season
How can journalists communicate seasonal forecasts clearly and help audiences understand what they mean for preparedness?
ICPAC is convening a virtual dialogue bringing together journalists, editors, climate scientists and Member State forecasters to discuss the October–December (OND) 2026 rainfall season and strengthen accurate, accessible and action-oriented reporting across the IGAD region.
Member States will present their latest national OND forecasts, followed by ICPAC’s outlook on the drivers and implications for the rainfall season, including El Niño. The presentations will provide an opportunity to understand country-specific conditions, clarify forecast uncertainty and discuss what the outlook means for communities and decision-makers.
