Project coordinator Frederiek Sperna Weiland (Deltares) presented the CLIMAAX project in the event held in Warsaw on 25-26 March 2025, under the framework of the Polish Presidency of the Council of the European Union.
On April 9, in Zagreb, Jeremy Pál (CMCC) showcased the Framework and the Toolbox developed by the consortium, concluding his speech with a presentation of the Community of Practice.
Stefan Hochrainer-Stigler (IIASA) and colleagues suggest ways to tackle challenges in managing disasters induced by natural hazards in an integrated and comprehensive manner by applying key concepts from systemic risk research to triple- and multiple-dividend approaches.
The newly selected Regions, that applied for the 2nd and last CLIMAAX call for applications, belong to 19 countries and will receive more than EUR 6,6 million cumulated funding. As a whole, the project will give financial and technical support to 69 Regions in their path to the climate resilience.
The study, authored by Benedetta Sestito (IVM) and colleagues, presents the first dynamic heat vulnerability assessment for Europe, incorporating spatial and temporal dimensions through ordinary least squares regression.
The event brought together around 400 climate enthusiasts for two days of collaborative learning and knowledge exchange.
In a paper published in the “Environmental Research: Climate” journal, Ted Buskop e colleagues propose a method to select more impact-relevant scenarios by determining regionally relevant climatic impact drivers and clustering global climate models on their projected changes in these drivers.
Though an online round of introduction, the CLIMAAX regions have shared their climate risk assessment experiences and ambitious plans for the future.
