UNESCO took part in the 7th @ECCA_Conference in Rimini this week.

During the Nature-based Solutions session, we shared insights on scaling capacity building from global to local levels, & highlighted EU-funded projects #NBSINFRA, #RESILIAGE, #SYNERGIES & #ALBATROSS.🌱🌍

[European Climate Change Adaptation (ECCA) @ECCA_Conference]

The Closing Plenary is underway & began with the impressive impact of Landscape Architect Bas Smets in Paris to turn dissolute urban areas into nature-filled & welcoming public areas

How can cities protect those most at risk from extreme heat? 🥵🌆 At #ECCA2025, speakers from Germany, Hungary & Slovenia shared real-world tools, from shaded route apps to school co-design. Local action, anchored in smart governance, is key. 🌍🔥 #HeatAdaptation #UrbanResilience

Guess what they are doing during the #ECCA2025 conference

[Andrew Mackenzie @awmackenzie]

Plenty to take in on Day 2 of #ECCA2025 – strong focus on turning knowledge into action.
Resilience, climate security, adaptation finance, citizen assemblies… All pointing to the same thing: we need joined-up thinking and practical tools to drive real change. But adaptation isn’t just about infrastructure – it’s about people. #Physiology shows us how climate impacts the body, and that insight is crucial for effective action.

🏝️And Day 2 finished with a great dinner on the beach.

"Investments yield not only a positive financial return, but also a significantly larger environmental & societal impact return" Linda Romanovska, University of New South Wales, addressing adaptation finance gap is paramount in tackling climate change

Effective engagement with citizens & stakeholders has been a recurring #ECCA2025 theme & 1 of our final workshops is looking at this from the perspective of vulnerable groups, private sector & local authorities
#Engagement

[European Climate Change Adaptation (ECCA) @ECCA_Conference]

Guess Who? Presenters at the #NbS session got interactive, quizzing audience to test their understanding. A fun reminder that active listening might be the 1st step to solving challenges!

Instead of "Do we need to pay for adaptation" ask "What kind of city do we want to see in the future?" - insight from Michael Mullan of @OECD in 'Fostering an EU Enabling Ecosystem to Close the European Adaptation Finance Gap'

He discovered a little-used word 'Respair' - the return to hope from despair

[European Climate Change Adaptation (ECCA) @ECCA_Conference]

Ben Norris, Queensland Uni, is studying best practice mental health services in response to climate change impacts: 'being just hopeful can be counter-productive ... provide opportunities - 'Active Hope'
