Report on the implementation of the EU strategy on adaptation to climate change 2023

Description

Most of the actions to which the Commission has committed in the 2021 adaptation strategy are off to a good start. Climate resilience considerations are far more present across EU policies than just a few years ago. Implementation will need to continue apace in the coming months and years. The report provides an illustration of the efforts underway with the status of 2023.

This report targets a more straightforward task: providing a picture of progress that is underway on improving knowledge and data; supporting policy development and climate risk management at all levels; and accelerating action to anticipate and to adapt across the board to put Europe in a much better position to face climate impacts already before 2030. It therefore also feeds into the first assessment of EU level progress on the Climate Law obligations on adaptation that is published concurrently.
