A Danish-Swedish summit on Sustainable Financing for Climate Change Adaptation
On 5-6 December 2024 city and water sector stakeholders from the Nordic region, as well as European and global stakeholders, will gather for a lunch-to-lunch summit to discuss challenges and opportunities in climate adaptation within the water sector.
Together, we will develop a joint Call for Action on Financing Innovative Climate Change Adaptation.
And many more for inspiring talks and debates
Under the theme “How much are our cities worth? – a Danish-Swedish summit on Sustainable Financing for Climate Change Adaptation” Catarina Rolfsdotter-Jansson will facilitate our discussions on vital topics including:
The target audience is water sector and urban decision-makers, planners and managers leaders, government representatives, researchers, consulting companies, manufacturers and others working on these issues.
Greater Copenhagen is joining forces with key organizations driving the green transition in the Nordic region to spark a conversation about financial and investment requirements, innovation needs and opportunities for industrial development within climate change adaptation.
DTU – Technical University of Denmark is hosting the Climate Adaptation Summit.
The summit will focus on cities, urban water management, and the impact of investments in climate change in order to building resilience to anticipated changes such as rising sea levels, more frequent and severe storms, increased precipitation, and extreme events like cloudbursts and urban flooding.
During our discussions, we will develop recommendations for financing and improving climate adaptation, partnerships and innovation to be taken forward by organizers. The summit will also offer a valuable opportunity for knowledge sharing and networking within the Nordic, European and global water sector.
Catarina Rolfsdotter-Jansson will guide the summit through a Nordic and European discussion on adaptation challenges, how to plan and invest for an uncertain future, societal and technological solutions to protect infrastructure and the values at stake in our cities and the current innovation needs alongside funding opportunities and models.
