Join us for an interactive and engaging matchmaking event to encourage collaboration among regions, local authorities, and research and innovation (R&I) stakeholders. Our goal is to facilitate the creation of partnerships that will draft compelling project proposals for the 2024 call of the EU Mission on Adaptation to climate change.  

This event focuses on the topics 06-09, centered on demonstration projects that often include a wide range of actors such as universities, networks, public authorities, etc. For the demonstration projects, activities should take place in at least three regions/communities located in at least three EU Member States/Countries Associated with Horizon Europe. Proposals must also include three replicating regions/communities.   

• HORIZON-MISS-2024-CLIMA-01-06: Demonstration of approaches to improve bankability of solutions by design, addressing the co-benefits (mitigation and adaptation) to improve revenues streams​. 
• HORIZON-MISS-2024-CLIMA-01-07​: Demonstration of solutions specifically suited to rural areas and small/ medium size population local communities​. 
• HORIZON-MISS-2024-CLIMA-01-08​: Demonstration of approaches by regions and local authorities focused on increasing climate resilience of the most vulnerable social groups (just climate resilience)​
• HORIZON-MISS-2024-CLIMA-01-09​: Systemic and cross-sectoral solutions for climate resilience, tailored to the local needs of regions and local authorities​. 

Participants will take part in engaging breakout sessions, designed to empower regions to present their climate adaptation challenges and seek out-of-the-box solutions. Meanwhile, R&I actors will have the opportunity to scout for suitable demonstration sites, fostering a synergy that sparks innovation. Expect to explore potential partnerships, cultivating leader-follower dynamics within projects. 

But the conversation doesn't stop there! 
A registry of regions, outlining their project interests and challenges, will be circulated within the Mission's network, streamlining the process of consortium formation and ensuring effective collaboration. 

Join us as we embark on this collaborative journey towards a more resilient future!
