Changes in this version: The Pannonian region of Serbia was missing in previous versions and this has been corrected in the 2016 version.

Urban adaptation to climate change in Europe 2016 — Transforming cities in a changing climate

Urban adaptation to climate change in Europe 2016 — Transforming cities in a changing climate This report builds on and complements existing products and initiatives on urban adaptation in Europe. It focuses on the state of actions in the field and progress achieved since the first EEA report in 2012, and it considers this analysis in relation to current challenges: Do existing actions lead to attractive, climate-resilient cities and if not, what needs to be changed? The report aims to broaden perspectives and provide input to a review and subsequent adjustment of urban adaptation to climate change by local governments and by supporting regional, national and European institutions, researchers and other relevant stakeholders.
