Western Norway Research Institute and NORCE Social Sciences carries out a survey of the overall experience base in the field of climate adaptation in the regional planning and development work in Sogn og Fjordane and Hordaland. The background is that the two counties will be merged into one county, Vestland, in 2020.
The project has four sub-goals:
Document what experiences each of the county has gained in this field
Find out what the two counties can learn from each other in the field of climate adaptation
Assess what challenges and knowledge needs the new county faces in the further work with adaptation to climate change
Make suggestions on how Vestland County can meet the new challenges that result from climate change
The reports from the project are available on Western Norway Research Institute’s website.
