AdaptationHubs

AdaptationHubs is an initiative funded by the European Commission establishing a pan-European network of National Adaptation Hubs. These Hubs – some already in operation and others to be newly established – serve as national Multi-Level Governance Platforms through which relevant authorities and stakeholders, across all administrative levels, can jointly discuss, plan, and implement actions aimed at strengthening Europe’s climate resilience.

Each platform, referred to as the National Adaptation Hub and created in every EU Member State (one per Member State), will support national governments in fulfilling the obligations set out in the European Regulation on the Governance of the Energy Union and Climate Action (Regulation (EU) 2018/1999) by strengthening coordination across ministries, agencies, regions, municipalities, academia, businesses and other relevant actors, and improving the flow of information and support between national and territorial levels on top of integrating contributions from horizontal actors.

In addition, the initiative provides a structured framework for grouping, twinning, and cooperation, thereby facilitating national, cross-border, and EU-wide knowledge exchange and capacity building.
