Integrated theme:
Understanding Socio-economic Value of Climate Data, Prediction, Information, and Services
The 20th Annual Climate Prediction Applications Science Workshop (CPASW) brings together a diverse community to share developments in research and application of weather and climate information for societal decision-making. Participants will include researchers, service producers, resource managers, planners, practitioners, social scientists, and others making weather and climate-sensitive decisions.
NOAA’s National Weather Service Climate Services Branch, National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI), North Carolina Institute for Climate Studies (NCICS), and many other climate services partners are collaborating in the organization of the 2023 CPASW. For this year’s theme, we especially invite participants in the areas of social science, climate extension and communication, climate-informed decision making, and developers/providers that specialize in decision support.
The Workshop will address the following Focus Areas:
Linking Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (SBES) to Climate Services
- Products and Tools (GIS, surveys, etc.)
- Analysis, findings, and recommendations including methods for adding economic value to climate products
- Applications of SBES
- Service equity
- Subseasonal to seasonal (S2S) decisions
- Climate change planning and risk mitigation
- Climate information services for infrastructure
Improving Data, Prediction, and Attribution to Understand and Communicate the Risk of Extreme Events and Response Strategies
- Impact on economy and risk management of changing nature of extreme events
- Data to decisions, including datasets and database quality control and management (applying data to facilitate improved decision making decisions)
- Applications of modern technologies
- Cloud utilities (e.g., NODD – NOAA Open Data Dissemination, LCAT – Local Climate Analysis Tool, etc)
- AI-driven decision-making tools
Weather, water, and climate extremes are a unifying issue across all of these focus areas contributing to significant impacts on the economy and society. Applications of climate information at various timescales, including sub-seasonal to seasonal and beyond, help inform preparedness activities for disruptive events and long-term changes, supporting resilient communities and their economies. Infusing social, behavioral, and economical sciences will provide better guidance for applications of climate science for provision of the most impactful services for society.

Just Economics and Pisgah Legal Services are co-sponsoring a workshop for renters to learn their rights as tenants in NC. There will be a presentation and question and answer session with Pisgah Legal Services followed by a discussion with Just Economics about the Tenants’ Network. The goal of this workshop is to educate tenants about their rights as renters in North Carolina and begin connecting tenants to resources and to each other.
Through these workshops, Just Economics will facilitate the formation of a local Tenants’ Network. The purpose of having a Tenants Network is to build solidarity among tenants and between renters and the community, to organize mutual aid networks and to empower renters and community supporters to come together for projects to improve our neighborhoods. Additionally, the Tenants Network will be a way for renters to collectively advocate for public policies that favor the interests and rights of tenants and to take collective action to fight back when tenants face injustice.

Have you ever needed to sew a button, or quickly fix a hem moments before going on stage, or during a performance? Do you ever find yourself wandering through local thrift shops thinking, “this would be the perfect shirt for a show costume,” but when it comes time to put the costume together you’re not so sure it’s the perfect shirt? Or maybe you’ve needed to take a costume from drab to fab (or vice versa) but you weren’t quite sure how to get there. Ashleigh Goff will lead participants in our Costuming Tips & Tricks course through some costume assembly and repair basics, and discuss design practices that she has used to costume shows in the past. She’ll share some costuming techniques, and each student will walk away having practiced some skills they can put to use.
