Joint strategies for Climate Change Adaptation in coastal areas (Joint_SECAP)

Description:

The Joint_SECAP Project reflects the necessity to operate at a wider district level and better define strategies and actions for climate change adaptation, especially for those weather and climate changes and hydrogeological risks affecting coastal areas. It aims to develop a a common methodology for the definition of Joint Sustainable Energy and Climate Action Plans (SECAPs) focused on sharing knowledge on climate change adaptation strategies and mitigation measures.

Specific project objectives are:

• Raising awareness of citizens about the risks and appropriate measures related to climate change through workshops, seminars, websites, advertising, and promotional materials.
• Gathering of data and assessment of climate change risks.
• Creating a web platform where case studies, climate and energy measures, data on climate change risk will be available for free to all interested stakeholders and citizens.

The first phase of the Project is focused on the development and implementation of the common methodology for Joint SECAPs. Sharing of the basic knowledge about issues concerning climate change adaptation strategies and energy efficiency measures with public and stakeholders is also fostered. The second phase starts when the analysis and data are uploaded in the web platform, acting as a useful tool for the development of scenarios which will be implemented in the Joint SECAPs which will be the main project output.
