Climate Resilience Maturity Assessment for Regions

Welcome to the Climate Resilience Maturity Assessment for Regions, an online self-assessment tool developed as part of the EU project “Regions4Climate”. This is a qualitative tool for guidance and reflection: it aims at supporting regions to evaluate their level of climate resilience maturity, identify potential gaps, and inform the prioritisation of suitable policies to advance climate resilience and to justify funding of specific measures.

The tool recognizes the crucial role of regions in climate adaptation and resilience-building, in alignment with the EU Mission on Adaptation to Climate Change. In fact, the Mission emphasises the importance of regions as key agents of change, to design pathways of transformation addressing regional and local needs in the face of increasing challenges, including climate change. At the same time, there is a lack of tools specifically targeting the regional level to help navigate resilience-building processes, taking in consideration the diversity of regional administrative structures and governance contexts.

This tool aims at addressing this gap, in order to better support regional governments in climate resilient development.
