Systems Thinking in Practice: Masterclass for Transformational Adaptation in Wales: Event Summary and Reflections
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.
Climate Risk Tools Workshop Wales: Summary & Reflections
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.
New policy brief: Unlocking UK climate adaptation finance
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.
MACC Hub webinar series #9: Making climate risk tools more accessible for adaptation action
A webinar on how decision support tools and dashboards are improving access to climate risk information and supporting adaptation decision-making through the MACC Hub and OpenCLIM.
The NIRD project: stress-testing UK infrastructure resilience
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.
MACC Hub webinar series #8: Ensuring a secure food supply in a changing climate
Experts discuss how climate change is affecting UK food production, supply chains, and prices, and explored how solutions like landscape-scale approaches and nature-based strategies can build a resilient food system. Watch now to gain insights from cutting-edge MACC research and how the UK can prepare for climate-driven disruptions.
Weather Together Toolkit: Preparing youth for extreme weather events
A toolkit to teach 10-16-year-olds about preparing for and coping with extreme weather events, including climate change teaching resources and weather learning activities on flood risk, heatwaves, and eco-anxiety.
MACC Hub webinar series #7: Practical examples of transformational adaptation
This webinar brought together practitioners working on the ground to showcase what transformational adaptation looks like in practice. You can now watch the recording to explore real-world projects, learn what enables success and hear directly from those delivering innovative adaptation initiatives across the UK.
Survey: Training needs for Transformational Climate Adaptation
Climate change is reshaping daily life, yet adaptation often remains incremental and technocratic. This piece explores why transformational approaches are needed, what capabilities they demand, and invites professionals to complete a survey that will guide new training approaches to address systemic vulnerability.
