climate change adaptation

This masterclass in Systems Thinking focused on helping practitioners move beyond linear approaches to planning, and instead understand the wider systems shaping climate risks and responses.

On the 26th February the MACC Hub hosted an interactive online Climate Risk Tools Workshop for Wales led by the Tyndall Centre for Climate Change Research, University of East Anglia and Severn Estuary Partnership. It was attended by public sector organisations and individuals from across Wales who came together to find out more about how to access and use climate risk data and tools to support climate risk and adaptation planning.

The first ATTENUATE project policy brief synthesises international evidence on adaptation investment planning frameworks and enabling conditions. It identifies 37 enabling conditions relevant to the UK context across five themes to inform approaches to closing the adaptation finance gap.

The National Infrastructure Resilience Demonstrator (NIRD) project has developed an open-source modelling framework to understand how extreme weather, particularly flooding, disrupts the UK’s road network.

The Met Office has updated its Local Authority Climate Service (LACS), providing higher-resolution climate data, improved insights into extremes, and new case studies to support local adaptation planning and decision-making.

On 27th February, the London Climate Ready Partnership and the MACC Hub convened more than 100 stakeholders from across London’s public, private, academic, health, transport, and community sectors to discuss one of the capital’s most urgent adaptation challenges: extreme heat. 

Explore this toolkit to navigate climate conversations and communicate in ways that resonate with different audiences.

The Glasgow City Region Climate Adaptation Strategy and Action Plan is a long-term adaptation project facilitated by Climate Ready Clyde to support and transform the sustainable future of the Region until 2030.

This research provides trends in global climate change adaptation laws and policies over time through analysing 35 countries and establishes key developments and recommendations for policy.
