General Ghazi said also that more focus should be placed on generating climate-impact predictions from increasingly large amounts of data that are available from organisations such as the World Resources Institute, and that regional scenarios can be planned for to reduce consequences. 

The Brussels Dialogue on Climate Diplomacy is an informal network set up for the exchange of information and to promote cooperation among European institutions and international organisations active in the nexus between climate change and international, national, human and environmental security.
