The general objective of the REACHOUT is to make progress in the provision of climate services to better support European cities in building resilience to climate change through a pragmatic approach that builds on existing achievements and addresses major barriers to implementation. Climate services supporting adaptation decisions are developed for 7 City Hubs across Europe. These hubs serve as living laboratories for co-creating services with the government, citizens and the private sector and serve as accelerators for further regional and national upscaling of the use of these services. The hubs represent a regionally diverse portfolio of climate vulnerabilities and adaptation needs across stakeholders. The climate services developed within the project will be visualized and presented in attractive climate story maps.
REACHOUT brings together a highly experienced transdisciplinary team with comprehensive knowledge on climate change adaptation and climate services and experience working in cities. At each city hub, REACHOUT has a direct beneficiary who is experienced in adaptation planning and has strong institutional connections and relationships with other municipalities, cities and organizations on their periphery.
In a series of 4 Policy briefs (read here the first and the second) REACHOUT communicates its main findings to a wider audience of stakeholders that include city urban planning and adaptation professionals, the climate service community, and the EU adaptation policy makers.
The expected results of REACHOUT are:
