Priorities and funded actions

Objectives

  • Contribute to the socially just and sustainable transition towards a climate neutral economy by 2050 and to reaching the EU emission reduction target for 2030 of at least 55% compared with 1990 levels
  • Ensure continuous progress in enhancing adaptive capacity, strengthening resilience and reducing vulnerability to climate change
  • Achieve the long-term vision of the EU Strategy on Adaptation to Climate Change that, in 2050, the EU will be a climate-resilient society which is fully adapted to the unavoidable impacts of climate change
  • Improving governance through enhancing the capacities of public and private actors and the involvement of civil society

Priorities

  • Priority 1 – Make adaptation smarter (improving knowledge, managing uncertainty, and informing adaptation actions by robust data and risk assessment tools that are available to all)
  • Priority 2 – Make adaptation more systemic (incorporating climate resilience considerations in all relevant policy fields, because climate change has impacts at all levels of society and across all sectors of the economy)
  • Priority 3 – Make adaptation faster (developing and rolling out adaptation solutions that allow us to adapt more quickly and comprehensively)
