Summary
In the face of escalating climate challenges like heatwaves and air pollution, current adaptive measures are proving insufficient. The EU-funded healthRiskADAPT project will pioneer transformative adaptation strategies across Europe. Focused on Mediterranean, Alpine, and Continental regions, healthRiskADAPT seeks to revolutionise how we tackle climate-related health risks. By integrating technical, nature-based, and social solutions, the project empowers local authorities to assess vulnerabilities, prioritise actions, and enhance preparedness. This comprehensive approach includes developing user-friendly toolkits and engaging stakeholders to ensure effective implementation. With its ambitious goals and innovative methods, healthRiskADAPT stands poised to lead Europe towards a healthier, climate-resilient future.
