European Topic Centre on Climate Change Adaptation & LULUCF (ETC CA)

Telling the story of climate change impacts, vulnerability and adaptation actions in Europe

The European Topic Centre on Climate Change Adaptation & LULUCF supports the European Environment Agency (EEA) in the implementation and further development of EU policy and legislation.

The Topic Centre monitors the impacts of the climate crisis as well as climate adaptation and LULUCF. In addition, it contributes to harmonisation, quality assessment and the use of data and information.

The ETC CA also supports the policy process around the EU Climate Change Adaptation Strategy in the framework of the EU Green Deal. In addition, the Competence Centre manages the European Climate Change Adaptation Platform, Climate ADAPT, and is responsible for its permanent updating and improvement.

The European Topic Centre on Climate Change Adaptation and LULUCF (ETC CA) is a consortium of 16 European organisations with expertise in climate adaptation and land use, land use change and forestry (LULUCF), led by the Italian foundation Centro Euro-Mediterraneo sui Cambiamenti Climatici (CMCC).
