As a response to the unavoidable impacts of climate change and to become climate resilient by 2050, the European Union adopted its new EU strategy on adaptation to climate change on 24 February 2021. The principal objectives of the Strategy are to achieve smarter, swifter and more systemic adaptation, and to step up international action on climate change adaptation. The Strategy is part of the broader set of policy initiatives, the European Green Deal, which aims to make the EU the first climate-neutral continent by 2050. The related initiatives in Europe, such as the IMPETUS project, may provide inspiration for other countries in designing their pathways to resilience.
