Policy briefs overview

The European Commission FP7 funded MEDIATION project (Methodology for Effective Decision-making on Impacts and AdaptaTION) is looking at adaptation decision support tools, in line with its objectives to advance the analysis of impacts, vulnerability and adaptation, and to promote knowledge sharing through the MEDIATION Adaptation Platform.

To complement the information on the Platform, a series of Technical Policy Briefing Notes have been produced on Decision Support Methods for Climate Change Adaptation.

This section gives access to these Technical Policy Briefing Notes. Each Briefing Note can be browsed online and is interlinked with respective sections of the platform (e.g. case studies). In addition, you can download each brief as a pdf.
