About MedAdapt
Yes. MedAdapt specifically addresses the unique environmental, social, and economic challenges facing Mediterranean coastal and marine systems and promotes knowledge sharing across the region.
MedAdapt is a knowledge platform that supports climate resilience in Mediterranean coastal and marine areas. It provides adaptation options, case studies, climate projections, publications, and policy resources to help communities and decision-makers address climate change impacts.
MedAdapt was developed under the MedProgramme through projects funded by the Global Environment Facility (GEF) and implemented by UNEP/MAP. Development was coordinated by PAP/RAC and builds upon the AdriAdapt platform.
MedAdapt is intended for policymakers, coastal managers, researchers, practitioners, local authorities, NGOs, and anyone interested in climate change adaptation in Mediterranean coastal regions.
Planning & Decision-Making
The case studies showcase real-world experiences from Mediterranean countries, highlighting successful approaches, lessons learned, challenges, and practical solutions that can inspire and inform future adaptation actions.
Climate projections help stakeholders understand future risks, including rising temperatures, sea- level rise, heatwaves, floods, and droughts. This information supports evidence-based planning and long-term resilience strategies.
Platform Content & Resources
Yes. MedAdapt provides access to a range of downloadable resources, including handbooks, guidelines, methodological frameworks, and other publications related to climate adaptation and coastal resilience.
The platform offers adaptation measures, practical case studies, regional climate projections, policy guidance, publications, handbooks, and multimedia resources related to climate resilience.
Understanding Adaptation
Adaptation options are measures and strategies that help coastal and marine areas reduce vulnerability to climate change impacts such as sea-level rise, flooding, coastal erosion, droughts, and extreme weather events.
- Grey measures involve engineered infrastructure, such as seawalls and raised coastal land.
- Green measures use natural or nature-based solutions to enhance resilience.
- Societal measures focus on planning, governance, policies, and community actions, such as managed retreat and coastal setback zones.
