Murcia has been officially selected to be part of the European project REGILIENCE: aims at sharing the most promising cross-sectoral adaptation solutions, supporting cities and regions across Europe to become more resilient to climate change.
After analysing the answers from more than 50 regions, the Region of Murcia has been identified into the group of focus regions that would be provided with tailored support from the project and allow them access to exclusive activities and opportunities.
REGILIENCE, is a project funded by the EU Horizon 2020 programme and will support communities, cities and regions in their efforts towards building climate-resilient pathways. It will facilitate the identification and upscaling of the most promising resilience solutions: supporting their replication in 10 vulnerable regions of Europe; communicating them through various channels and actions; and inspiring policymakers, organisations, and individuals to become part of the change.
To make this support effective, REGILIENCE will implement almost 700 activities such as events, trainings, peer to peer mentorship, helpdesk, informational and communication material, etc. to share experiences, learn from failure, provide guidance, and disseminate knowledge and tools. REGILIENCE will produce a Resilience Fundamentals Course, a citizen Resilience Scan Tool, and will test 10 innovative public-private partnership approaches, among other activities.
The project will be implemented over 48 months .
