The Climate Adaptation Summit will be a 24-hour marathon of virtual events aimed at accelerating adaptation action. Hosted by the Netherlands with support from the Global Commission on Adaptation (GCA), CAS2021 will feature the launch of ambitious adaption agendas, new commitments, and partnerships. The program will include participation from heads of state and government such as the President of France, Emmanuel Macron, British Prime Minister Boris Johnson, and Prime Minister of Bangladesh Sheikh Hasina.
Climate policymakers, civil society organizations, and the private sector will be directly involved as well. AGWA will be taking part in a number of events throughout the Summit, notably those organized through the GCA Water Action Track. More information on specific events will be posted separately. The eight Action Tracks of the GCA are key themes of the Summit.
Registration for the Climate Adaptation Summit is currently open and free to join. You must register in order to gain full access to the online events. Events will be streamed live, with recordings available later via CAS TV, Twitter, and Instagram.
