Project description

This project has strengthened adaptation to climate change in the Basque Country, within the framework of the 2050 Climate Change Strategy of the Basque Country. To this end, the climate risk analysis of the main sectors of the Autonomous Community was carried out and those in which it is a priority to act were identified. The methodology used was based on the Fifth Assessment Report (AR5) of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) and focused on sectoral interrelationships and a multi-hazard approach.

Based on the information obtained, a series of specific indicators were proposed for each sector, by means of which climate risk was calculated. Finally, the most vulnerable sectors were identified and adaptation solutions were proposed.
