Mission: Adaptation to climate change (Horizon Europe)

In February 2021, the EC adopted a EU strategy on adaptation to climate change that sets out how the EU can adapt to the unavoidable impacts of climate change and become climate resilient by 2050.

Pushing further on the belief that we must adjust now to tomorrow's climate, the EU is launching a specific mission to foster the resilience of all, be it regions, cities, citizens or companies, to climate change. The Mission Adaptation to Climate Change, will enable Europe to prepare for unavoidable climate impacts and accelerate the transformation to a climate-resilient Europe. The implementation plan specifies the goal and objectives as well as implementation details of the mission “Adaptation to Climate Change”8.

Rooted in research and innovation, the Mission will set out concrete objectives and deliver tangible solutions to Europeans.

HORIZON-MISS-2022-CLIMA-01-01: User driven applications and tools for regional and local authorities, and other end users focusing on climate impacts, data and knowledge

Expected Outcome: Projects are expected to contribute to all of the following outcomes:

  • Better access to, and transformation of, the already openly available climate data in the C3S Climate Data Store, Climate ADAPT and relevant Horizon 2020 projects or other initiatives (such as GEOSS) into user-relevant climate change services, in combination with locally sourced data and information, where available. Long-term safeguarding of developed solutions by integration in the operational infrastructure and services of the Climate Data Store should also be explored.
  • Beyond-state-of-the-art relevant information (including climate, socio-economic, demographic information) services and tools tailored to Mission users’ needs (decision makers, local and regional authorities and other end users), with customizable data-manipulation tools available for use and re-use.
  • Quality-controlled climate data services that the Mission could build upon, supported and maintained as customizable, user-oriented components of operationally supported EU services (such as the C3S). Projects might want to refer to, and follow guidance, from the project under the topic on “Supporting and standardising climate services”.
  • Tested FAIR data governance and management mechanisms that enable the sharing, community validation and use of locally sourced data (e.g. citizen-generated data) and information, in combination with authoritative data and information as part of the European Green Deal Data Space.
  • Demonstrated application in at least 5 EU regions or communities

Expected Outcome: Projects are expected to contribute to all of the following outcomes:

  • A set of weather and climate risk insurance products to be used or replicated across EU regions and communities.
  • Mechanisms to record, collect and share climate-related risk and losses data integrated within the Risk Data Hub, the Copernicus services, and other initiatives.
  • Guidance on insurance pricing that reflect risks reduction measures, and to ensure affordable insurance cover.
  • Trial innovative risk transfer solutions to deal with climate-induced risk, including parametric insurance and insurance of nature-based solutions.
  • Advance public sector modernization when it comes to the demand for insurance solutions for climate adaptation.
  • Open up opportunities in the insurance market for cutting edge risk transfer solutions.
  • Reinforced policy frameworks to facilitate the allocation of substantial additional national and regional budgets to increase the penetration in the EU of insurance solutions to deal with climate-induced risks.
