WMO, 1979

One of the oldest international initiatives in climate research, WCRP has much to highlight from its 40 years of activities. For WCRP's 40th Anniversary Symposium, the WCRP Secretariat is looking for historic material on the Programme in all forms. The WCRP Secretariat would like to showcase the programme's achievements over time as well as the people that made its success possible - in the form of historical photos, videos, and/or personal accounts.

Please contact Narelle van der Wel (This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.) to discuss any suggestions or contributions from your personal archive.

The above photo shows, in the spirit of such a retrospective, the plenary of the First World Climate Conference from February 1979, which laid the foundation for the subsequent establishment of WCRP.
