6th European Climate Change Adaptation Conference - ECCA2023

From 19 – 21 June, Dublin was the 6th European Climate Change Adaptation Conference (ECCA) location, and LIFE was there.

The conference's goal was to inspire adaptation by showcasing solutions, exchanging knowledge, creating connections, and encouraging dialogue on how to act more and faster at every level. Since 2013, the European Union has been funding the organisation of ECCA.

Programme information is on the ECCA 2023 website, with more details being added regularly.

CINEA was present in the exhibition area to offer more insights about the work done by the Agency on climate adaptation and meet some of our projects. During coffee breaks, participants could ask questions about the EU Mission Adaptation.
