CHANGE WE CARE fosters concerted and coordinated climate adaptation actions at transboundary level. The project explores climate risks faced by coastal and transition areas contributing to a better understanding of the impact of climate variability and change on water regimes, salt intrusion, tourism, biodiversity and agro-ecosystems affecting the cooperation area. The main goal is to deliver integrated, ecosystem-based and shared planning options for different problems related to climate change (CC), together with adaptation measures for vulnerable areas to decision makers and coastal communities who may best benefit from it.In a multi-decadal perspective, the Project outputs will mainly consist of climate change Adaptation, Action and Monitoring Plans for the Pilot Sites, whose implementation will be coordinated by the territorial partners in charge for each site.
Training activities will enable technical and administrative operators to take full advantage of the data and protocols made available by the project, while dissemination events and workshops will increase the stakeholders‘ and communities‘ awareness on CC impacts and on the existence of specific adaptation measures.
The established network for sharing data and procedures will maintain an efficient monitoring activity, allowing the continuous assessment of the Adaptation Plans outcomes.
