Reports from the workshop

The 2002-03 El Niņo-related drought was among the worst in Australia's history, with major and widespread economic, social and environmental impacts. It was marked by an unprecedented demand for climate information services from the Bureau of Meteorology and other climate service providers. What lessons can be learnt from this event to help better manage the inevitable next drought?
