Pathways2Resilience contributes to the EU Mission on Adaptation to Climate Change
Pathways2Resilience is an opportunity for regions to lead the way on climate resilience and pursue their political commitment towards the Mission Adaptation

Calls for Applications

The first call for applications closed on the 6th of May 2024. We are currently reviewing the applications, and the results will be announced at the latest, by September 2024. The second call is expected to be launched in June 2025 (TBC).

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.

The Adaptation Finance Innovation Lab will work on putting together: ​

  • 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

Training modules propose access to knowledge and tools facilitating tailored one-to-one support to regions and communities.

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

Answer our questionnaire to express your interest in the Pathways2Resilience programme

The Expression of Interest process enables regions to demonstrate their motivation, willingness, and capacity to apply for the Pathways2Resilience programme, while also allowing them to share their adaptation challenges, barriers and support needs. It aims at mobilising regions and communities willing to accelerate their transformation towards climate resilience.

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.
