The two-hour workshop showcased the recent advances and bottlenecks in regional climate risk assessments.
As the curtain falls on the first Open Call for regions and communities of CLIMAAX project, it’s time for a brief overview.
A recent study led by Lena Reimann from the Institute of Environmental Studies explores drivers of social vulnerability based on flood fatalities.
CLIMAAX’s Open Call invites public bodies to apply for up to 300,000 EUR funding per project, CRA toolbox access, and methodological guidance. The original deadline, set on the 8th of March 2024, has been extended to the 22nd of March to allow UK entities to apply.
Throughout its inaugural year, the CLIMAAX project made airwaves on the international stage by attending multiple high-level events as well as organising various online sessions.
Identifying climate risks is a crucial step for designing adaptation strategies. Therefore, the CLIMAAX project developed a Digital Handbook that includes a Methodological Framework and a supporting Toolbox.
During the first year of the project, CLIMAAX partners organised so-called on-site visits with each pilot in order to better contextualise the climate risks in each of those.
The first General Assembly of CLIMAAX took place in Setúbal between the 29th of January and the 2nd of February 2024 in connection with the project webstival and the pilot on-site visit.
A new paper by Lena Reimann and colleagues compares three social vulnerability assessment methods that integrate population characteristics.
