Welcome to the Climate Change Adaptation Project: Canada

The Climate Change Adaptation Project: Canada (CCAP) was designed to identify and operationalize practical, meaningful and cost-effective adaptation solutions to the most challenging impacts of climate change facing Canada.

There have been initiatives in Canada that profile the long-term, broad impacts of climate change and the need to embrace adaptation. But there has not been an initiative at the national level to identify a short list of priority areas of climate change challenges and solutions that Canada must address immediately. The CCAP is designed to address this policy gap by not only identifying urgent adaptation solutions, but also turning these solutions into action.

ReNew Magazine features CCAP

The November/December issue of ReNew Canada, a magazine focused on infrastructure, profiles CCAP and  Partners for Action (a multi-sectoral initiative launched by the University of Waterloo and the Co-operators Group). The article is about how each group is tackling climate change adaptation, with a special focus on adapting urban infrastructure to reduce flooding.
