This session will explore the vital role of climate services and the active engagement of EU entities in aiding coastal and continental regions in adapting to the impacts of climate change. As these areas face diverse climate challenges, it is crucial to implement adaptive strategies informed by reliable climate data and supported by robust policy frameworks. Participants will gain insights into generating and applying climate information, understanding and participating in EU initiatives through citizen and stakeholder engagement, and seeing successful projects. Keynotes will provide expert perspectives, panels will facilitate stakeholder discussions, and Q&A sessions will offer opportunities for interactive learning. Strategies for planning, collaboration, and overcoming challenges in adaptation will be highlighted.
