Description

This primer aims to give a concise overview of the current state of climate change adaptation strategies in the Baltic Sea region. It covers policies being planned and implemented at the national, regional and European level. Elements of particular importance for the local level are highlighted wherever possible, as this is often the site of decision making where adaptation measures are actually implemented. Additionally, the primer provides key definitions for common climate change adaptation terms, and a selection of relevant projects dealing with climate change adaptation in the Baltic Sea, with overviews and web addresses.
