EU Mission:
Adaptation to Climate Change

The Mission on Adaptation is intended for all actors engaged in strengthening climate resilience. It targets policymakers, regional and local authorities, research institutions, businesses, and other stakeholders who play a role in designing, testing, or implementing adaptation solutions.

Through its collaborative framework and dedicated Community of Practice, the Mission supports cooperation, knowledge exchange, and joint action among these stakeholders to accelerate the development and rollout of effective climate adaptation measures.
