The 'Environment, Climate Change and Low Carbon Economy' Programme (Environment Programme) finances innovative and structuring projects for the country in the areas of Environment, Climate Change and Low Carbon Economy, with the objective of promoting the good environmental status of ecosystems and reduce the adverse effects of pollution and other human activities, with climate change being one of the main concerns expressed in the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), signed in Lisbon, on May 22, 2017.
It is in line with the current National Strategy for Adaptation to Climate Change 2020 (ENAAC 2020) and with the Action Program for Adaptation to Climate Change (P-3AC), supports policies for adaptation to climate change in the medium to long term, in a large-scale exercise to assess the impact, vulnerability and risk of climate change in the national territory in 2100.
The following areas were selected to be privileged:
- Develop adaptation strategies and adaptation plans at the local scale and integrate adaptation measures and actions into municipal and inter-municipal territorial management plans and sectoral policy instruments at the local scale - SGS # 3.
The "Cuidar Braga II" project is one of those belonging to SGS#3. You can watch the presentation in the next video.
- Operationalize concrete measures to adapt to climate change, at the local level, in an integrated manner with various sectors - PDP # 2 and SGS # 3.
- Assess the vulnerability of Portuguese territory to climate change in the 21st century - PDP # 3.
The financing for adaptation to climate change by the Environment Programme is € 6,024,897.09, through eighteen projects, which will be underway by the end of 2023.
