R4C

The R4C intends to make a significant contribution towards the transition to European climate resilience. R4C will provide innovative tools, linking new knowledge, technologies, and processes for informed decision-making, supporting European regions and communities exposed to significant impacts of climate change. The R4C main objectives are:

• Develop an operational structure, involving a wide range of local and regional stakeholders, providing tools to create, test, optimize, and replicate innovative and scalable solutions. These solutions will be adapted to each region, and will ensure greater regional resilience to the impacts of climate change;
• Scale and replicate these solutions through collaboration and “twinning” between front-runners and less experienced regions, regarding similar risks and climate impacts.

R4C will contribute overall to a climate-resilient society, adapted to the predicted impacts of climate change by 2050, based on large-scale technological and social innovations, providing enhanced adaptive capacity and minimized vulnerability to these same impacts, in line with the Paris Agreement and the European Climate Law.
