The purpose of the webinar is to present the new and updated knowledge resources on Climate-ADAPT, supporting actions on all steps of the adaptation policy cycle. Examples of those resources, implemented in the first semester of 2023, are the new information on mainstreaming of adaptation in 5 EU sector policies, the extension and better accessible climate indices in the European Climate Data Explorer, the European Climate Risk Assessment page, as well as the new EU Mission on Adaptation to Climate Change Portal. Actions, foreseen in the second semester of 2023, will also be introduced. In interactive sessions, feedback will be gathered on the new content and functionalities as well as envisaged priorities from the perspective of Climate-ADAPT users and providers.  

The target audience of the webinar are current and potential new users and information providers of Climate-ADAPT which are or might become part of the intended target audience of Climate-ADAPT, i. e., governmental decision-makers as well as the organisations supporting them in the development, implementation, and evaluation of climate change adaptation strategies, plans and actions at all governance levels in Europe. Beyond that, all other users are welcome to participate in the webinar.

Background:

The EU Adaptation Strategy states that Climate-ADAPT is a key reference for knowledge on adaptation and aims to make it the authoritative European platform for adaptation. To meet this ambition, Climate-ADAPT is since 2021 being significantly extended with new data and knowledge components. Further developments, such as the EU Climate Law, the EU Mission on Adaptation to Climate Change, Destination Earth, the European Climate and Health Observatory, the EEA-Eionet Strategy, and working with new partners have required a substantial upgrading of Climate-ADAPT's mission and objectives, as well as a redefinition of the governance structure and role of stakeholders. The 2022-2024 Climate-ADAPT Strategy informs about those changes and outlines priority actions. Information about recent developments can be found in the recordings of 2022 and 2021 webinars.
