Watch the event recording

Note: Parallel sessions were not recorded, under Chatham House rule

As a part of the European Commission’s Joint Research Centre’s work on transformative innovation, in collaboration with DG CLIMA as orchestrator of the European Mission on CCA, DG RTD, and external climate and innovation experts, JRC.B7 organises on 22 October 2024 the second of a series of on-line peer-reviews on transformative innovation for Climate Change Adaptation (CCA). At this event, territorial pathways towards integrating transformative innovation in climate resilience activities of Blekinge will be discussed.

By engaging the community of Climate Change Adaptation (CCA) and innovation policy-makers from the territories which are signatories of the EU Mission Charter for Adaptation to Climate Change, this series of peer-reviews is organised as a follow-up activity to the Transformative Innovation for better Climate Change Adaptation Case Studies covering 16 European territories, composed of a selection of all bio-geographical regions of Europe. More peer reviews will be held with distinct volunteering territories until December 2024.

Thematic debates on the selected questions of interest are based on the Chatham House rules for open discussions. The peer-reviewed territory has the opportunity to showcase and discuss with peers from other territories the current status, open opportunities and options for further advancing in transformative CCA policies & measures, while the peers/critical friends can obtain important recommendations on possible steps for their own territories to progress towards incorporating more transformative innovation towards climate resilience.
