Fifth Forum for the EU Mission on Adaptation to Climate Change

The Fifth Forum for the EU Mission on Adaptation to Climate Change will take place on 28 May 2026 in Nicosia, Cyprus, under the Cypriot Presidency of the Council of the European Union. 

As climate challenges intensify across Europe, the Forum will highlight practical, replicable and scalable adaptation solutions already making a difference on the ground. Participants will explore innovative tools developed through Mission Projects, take part in collaborative discussions to shape locally relevant solutions, and connect with peers from across sectors and governance levels.
