The 1st ADCOM, Adaptation Communication on Climate Change that Portugal submitted to the Convention is published on the UNFCCC portal.

This Communication on Adaptation presents a transversal approach to the matters that comprise it, while maintaining communicative clarity with its target audiences, having as basic annexes the National Strategy for Climate Change Adaptation and the Adaptation to Climate Change Action Programme.

This ADCOM will be updated in the future based on the results from the National Roadmap for Adaptation 2100 - Assessment of the Portuguese territory's vulnerability to climate change in the 21st century (RNA2100), a project that is being developed with the support of the EEA Grants, which provide €400,000, with the remaining amount guaranteed by the APA.

The RNA2100 project aims to estimate the costs of sectors of activity to adapt to the expected impacts of Climate Change in 2100, and brings together knowledge from various institutions, in order to ensure that all relevant areas for adaptation to climate change are considered.
