Adaptation at Altitude Knowledge Network learning event - Lessons Learned: Designing and Implementing Transboundary Adaptation in Mountains

From: 09.07.2024 to: 09.07.2024

Join for a panel discussion on transboundary climate risks and how to successfully design and implement cross-border adaptation projects!

Mountains suffer some of the most visible impacts of climate change: rising temperatures and changing precipitation patterns are melting glaciers, disrupting water flows and affecting ecosystems, creating and worsening natural hazards and
threatening livelihoods and communities both within mountain regions and further downstream. These climate impacts and associated risks are not constrained by national borders. With mountain ranges often spanning multiple countries, adaptation to transboundary climate risks is becoming an increasingly complex and urgent challenge in mountain regions.

Following the momentum gained on transboundary and regional collaboration at the Expert Dialogue on Mountains and Climate Change at SBSTA 60, this Adaptation at Altitude (A@A) Knowledge Network learning event will share insights on designing and implementing transboundary adaptation projects, both in mountain regions and more broadly.

The event will be held on 9 July 2024 at 13:00-14:00 (BST) on Microsoft Teams.
