Best practices on how countries can utilize ICTs to adapt to the effects of climate change
Recommendation ITU-T L.1501 provides guidance on how information and communication technologies (ICTs) can help countries to adapt to the effect of climate change. It also provides a framework and a checklist for countries to integrate ICTs in their national climate change adaptation strategies. The recommendation is part of the ITU-T L.1500 series Recommendations on adaptation to the effects of climate change. It is designed to assist countries in integrating ICTs into their national climate change adaptation strategies.
The Recommendation describes the complexity of climate change and explains why countries need to adapt. It also describes the role of ICTs in helping countries respond to the effects of climate change by looking at how various sectors use ICTs; including the ICT sector. It is designed to be a guide for regulators and policymakers to minimize the impact of climate change and provides a 'multi-level framework for ICTs integration in climate change adaption' to assist countries in integrating ICTs in their national climate change adaptation strategies.
