    Building Resilience: Supporting EU Member States in Climate Change Adaptation and Civil Protection

    • HEALTH

    location_onAhrweiler Hall | European Cultural Centre of Delphi

    Programming Partners: DG Reform & European Investment Bank

    Climate change is very real and severely impacts Member States, including putting a strain on civil protection systems, as made evident by the destructive floods, snowstorms, and wildfires across Europe. The EU strives to be climate-neutral by 2050, by saving, diversifying, and producing green energy supplies. At the same time, the EU, through the Commission’s Technical Support Instrument (TSI) and EIB funding, aims to support Member States in adapting to the new realities of climate change and in strengthening their civil protection systems.

    This panel discussion aims to explore Member States' actions for addressing the impact of climate change and strengthening civil protection, the relevant support provided by the EU, through the Commission's TSI and EIB funds, as well as the pivotal role of the private sector.
