2020 is internationally declared as the year of action. This year is intended to bring people together and take joint actions against climate change. On 25 January 2021, world leaders will meet online during the Climate Adaptation Summit to discuss climate adaptation, make agreements and turn to action. As host cities of the Global Center on Adaptation, both Groningen and Rotterdam are organizing various activities, including a Climate Adaptation Week, in the run-up to the Climate Adaptation Summit.
The Climate Adaptation Week Groningen, which will take place from 19-25 January 2021, is part of the movement towards a climate-resilient society. In the run-up to this week, several digital (and, if possible, physical) events, projects and activities will be organized around the topic of climate adaptation. These inspiring events need to raise awareness for both professionals and citizens. The climate activities in Groningen will show the diverse aspects of climate adaptation and specific expertise in the Northern Netherlands.
