ICPDR Climate Change Adaptation Strategy

Description

The ICPDR Strategy on Adaptation to Climate Change provides an overview of the background and framework conditions of climate change adaptation for water-related sectors in the Danube River Basin. Relevant water related EU Directives and Policies include the EU Strategy on Adaptation to Climate Change, the EU Water Framework Directive, the EU Floods Directive as well as the EU Biodiversity Strategy 2020. National Climate Change Adaptation Strategies of Danube countries focus on the assessment of the present situation and highlight areas likely to be affected as well as requirements for adaptation to climate change and suggested adaptation measures with regard to water-related issues at the national level. An overview of the status of National Climate Change Adaptation Strategies in the Danube River Basin as of July 2017 is outlined. The ICPDR Strategy on Adaptation to Climate Change aims at offering guidance on the integration of climate change adaptation into ICPDR planning processes. It promotes action in a multilateral and transboundary context and serves as reference document influencing national strategies and activities. The ICPDR Strategy on Adaptation to Climate Change 2012 was updated and revised in the year 2018 taking into account new scientific results and implementation steps taken in the Danube countries.
