Are you a region or a community, committed to accelerating your transition towards climate resilience?
Answer our questionnaire to express your interest in the Pathways2Resilience programme
Increase your chance to receive funding and support under the programme!
- Receive first-hand information on the opening of the calls for applications
- Receive invitations to information sessions about the calls.
- Receive support to engage with local adaptation stakeholders in order to build a stronger application for the Pathways2Resilience calls.
Help us tailor the programme’s support services and capacity-building activities to your region or community interests and needs.
Answers the questionnaire allow the Pathways2Resilience programme team to:
- map and identify regions that need support
- identify the adaptation challenges and barriers as well as the support needs of the regions
- understand the local governance and engagement of key stakeholders for adaptation activities
Information retrieved from the Expression of Interest questionnaire will allow for the launch of matchmaking actions to facilitate dialogue between regions and local partners.
Calls for Applications
The Calls for Applications will select regions and communities that will receive a direct support from the Pathways2Resilience programme to develop transformative strategies and action plans towards climate resilience
the launch of the calls
Adaptation Finance Innovation Lab
The Adaptation Finance Innovation Lab is meant to design and conceptualise innovative finance mechanisms tailored to regions as well as propose and advise regions on adaptation finance, business models and innovation policy.
More information regarding participation possibilities will soon be available.
- Data-based catalogue of finance mechanisms, sources and best practices
- Regional adaptation finance strategies and resource mobilisation plans
- Fruitful partnerships with existing International Climate Finance Labs
9 pilot regions at different points in the Resilience Maturity Curve are being involved to develop and test this Adaptation Finance capacity package in real circumstances.
Innovation practice groups
The Innovation Practice Groups intend to support the locally-led formulation of shared visions, pathways and innovation agendas.
At least 10 Innovation Practice Groups will be organised, engaging a wide range of stakeholders in capacity building and exchange activities.
Those Innovation Practice Groups will allow to:
- Build upon existing knowledge and best practice
- Share programme’s learnings beyond the selected regions
- Ease cross-regional exchanges about regional adaptation challenges
By connecting regions with international experts, local practitioners, citizen groups and other key stakeholders, Innovation Practice Groups ensure we continuously look at emerging learnings, models and ideas.
4 key enabling conditions areas affecting the feasibility of adaptation and mitigation options and thus the possibility to scale up systemic transitions are given special attention, namely:
- Access to knowledge and data
- Governance and Engagement for innovation
- Behavioural change and empowerment
- Local economic systems
Compilation of learning will be made available on the transformative toolbox.
Training modules
Upcoming training sessions:
- Systems Innovation fundamentals: Understanding systems innovation narratives and working in complexity theory.
- System Innovation Labs: Application of Systems innovation theories, exploration of problem spaces, creation of joint intent and formulation of adaptation pathways and innovation agendas.
- Bridging the Adaptation Finance Gap
Be informed as soon as our agendas and registrations for training modules are made available

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, resilience maturity of regions and communities will be a criterion in Pathways2Resilience (P2R) as a whole. To measure regional resilience, we will use the P2R Resilience Maturity Curve and self-assessment tool to identify the level of resilience of candidate regions (More information about the selection criteria and the Resilience Maturity Curve will be shared in our information webinar). While all regions meeting the eligibility conditions will be welcomed to submit application, the services will be tailored to their level of maturity. In addition, the P2R programme has a mandate to also support regions and communities that are the least climate resilient, meaning with the highest vulnerability, limited resources and low adaptive capacity to climate change impacts. The exact number of grants for the most vulnerable regions will be announced in each call.
If you are an interested regional authority, keen to learn more, you can find more information in the early draft version of “A Guide to the Regional Resilience Journey”. You can send your feedback to pathways2resilience@climate-kic.org.
The deadline for completing the questionnaire is 15 September 2023 at 18:00 CEST.
