The EU Mission on Adaptation to Climate Change supports EU regions, cities, and local authorities in enhancing their resilience to the impacts of climate change. This Fifth Forum event will spotlight practical and replicable adaptation solutions that are making a difference on the ground.

This conference of the European Water Association (EWA) will explore four key topics: Delivering Europe´s Water Policy, Water Security in a Changing Climate, Urban Wastewater Treatment Directive (UWWTD): From Policy to Practice and Building the Future Water Workforce.

Organised by the Union of the Baltic Cities Sustainable Cities Commission as part of the Interreg Baltic Sea Region-funded ClimaResponse project, this in-person event is open to professionals working with climate resilience and disaster risk reduction in municipalities and at local and regional levels. It focuses on climate-related risks, urban adaptation and crisis preparedness, city governance and community engagement. The programme encompasses workshops and presentations with site visits and examples of tools and approaches from across the Baltic Sea Region.

This joint webinar from the EU-funded projects MountResilience and MOUNTADAPT will explore how climate resilience in mountain regions depends on an interconnected approach that brings together different types of knowledge, expertise and actors. Particular attention will be given to overheating and cooling of buildings, green infrastructure, and nature-based, technological, social and governance solutions in supporting adaptation.
