Recap final Make-aton National Adaptation Strategy (NAS ’26): A day full of valuable interaction

Read more about  the National Climate Adaptation Strategy (NAS '26).

An important goal of this Make-aton was to investigate how all fifteen themes of the NAS are interrelated. Participants engaged in discussions with each other through pitches, round-table discussions and group speed dates to explore the interactions between different tasks. What opportunities for coupling are there? Where are the potential conflicts? For example, more nature in working landscapes can promote health, but it can also bring with it new risks of allergies and infectious diseases. A frequently recurring point was spatial planning.

It was another inspiring day in which many valuable insights were exchanged! Over the coming weeks, a small team will begin working on the further development of the adaptation pathways. The pathways will be completed in April 2025 and, together with additional analyses, processed into a single integral NAS document.

A series of reports has been compiled about the Make-atons workshop series for the NAS adaptation pathways.
