The need to adapt to climate change is growing, which often means adapting at a regional level, especially for municipalities, cities and many companies.

This is why Finnish ICMIF member LähiTapiola (LocalTapiola) has donated EUR 310,000 to fund a research project by the by the Finnish Meteorological Institute (Ilmatieteen laitos) to enable more accurate, regional data to support climate change adaptation in Finland. In urban planning, for example, there is still a lack of tools to assess climate impacts at the planning level.
