There is robust evidence  that climate services aid adaptation decision making and build adaptive capacity, particularly where they are demand-driven and context-specific . Climate service interventions are constrained by low capacity, inadequate institutions, difficulties in maintaining systems beyond pilot project stage , and poor mapping between climate services and existing user capacities and demands  . Metrics to assess outcomes of climate services remain project-based and insufficiently capture longer-term economic and non-economic benefits of interventions . The technical feasibility of climate services is relatively strong and growing  but they can be made more inclusive by focusing on addressing uneven uptake based on location or gender  and a more balanced focus on uptake rather than data production alone  that values co-production and different knowledge systems .
