healthRiskADAPT – User-drive Health risk Assessment Services and Innovative ADAPTation options using Threats from Heatwaves Air Pollution, Wildfire Emission and Pollen

In addressing health risks associated with heatwaves, air pollution, wildfire emissions, and pollen, the implementation of comprehensive, transformative adaptation remains largely unreported in Europe.

Running from 1 November 2024 to 31 October 2028, healthRiskADAPT is a Horizon Europe project aiming to develop and implement a health risk assessment system for the Mediterranean, Alpine and Continental regions. Its contents and tools will be in line with Climate-ADAPT described adaptation support tool.

By inegrating technical, nature-based, and social solutions, the project aims to empower local authorities to assess vulnerabilities, prioritise actions, and enhance preparedness. This comprehensive approach includes developing user-friendly toolkits and engaging stakeholders to ensure effective implementation.

In the project, HOPE will support various activities, including the creation of use scenarios, the development of a vision for adaptation strategies, the development of communication campaigns, stakeholder engagement, and communication and dissemination activities.
