A global network-based organisation that provides knowledge services in support of effective, economically just and socially inclusive climate adaptation
🌍 How do we keep up with the complexity of climate risks? 🤔
That’s the question we’ve been reflecting on while diving into 'Challenges and Opportunities in Climate Risk Assessment' by Oscar Higuera Roa & co-authors.

1️⃣ Risk Amplifiers ➕
Factors like poor governance or maladaptation can escalate small hazards into disasters. Including these amplifiers in assessments = better interventions. 🎯
2️⃣ Cascading Risks 🔄
Not just overlapping hazards, but sectoral ripple effects 🌐
3️⃣ Event-Based Storylines 📖
Realistic scenarios can complement probabilistic methods, helping decision-makers explore risk interactions & evaluate trade-offs
@PlanAdapt, we aim to translate complex climate data into actionable insights that truly serve those most impacted🌟
🌱 We're thrilled to welcome Sudev Madhav Dileep to the @PlanAdapt team! 🌍
He's joined us as an Intern (Research, Collaboration & Innovation – Climate Risk Management, #ClimateAdaptation) and is based in Nijmegen, Netherlands #WelcomeToTheTeam Madhav!
Originally from Bengaluru, India, Madhav is an anthropologist whose work with Indigenous communities sparked a passion for the intersection of culture, ecology, and #climateaction - and the importance of amplifying diverse voices in climate policy 🌟 #ClimateJustice
In realization of its strategic imperatives, @arin_africa hosted @MRokitzki of @PlanAdapt, igniting key discussions on scaling community-led adaptation, supporting early career researchers & translating research into impact. #ClimateAction#Research#LLA
🌍Excited to have the Capacity Strengthening Hub (CS Hub) team over for a planning workshop! The CS Hub is an initiative under the CLARE Programme implemented by the incredible team from @PlanAdapt and @ACTSNET

🌍 Is #adaptation to #climatechange just about managing risks, or should it be about building stronger connections with each other & nature? 🤔
New research explores a 'relational turn' in adaptation - where relationships drive true #climateresilience 🌱
💡 How is successful co-production of knowledge realised for addressing future #climaterisks and enhancing #resilience ?
And how far away from their traditional roles must climate scientists go to connect #climate information with climate #decisionmaking 🍃 ?
Special importance has been placed on the role of knowledge brokers as intermediaries in processes of co-production that involves the translation of data which brings closer climate scientists to decision makers.
