LIFE Integrado Urban Klima 2050 will be the largest climate action project in the Basque Country over coming years. It aims to cut greenhouse gas emissions by 40% by 2030 and 80% by 2050. It will also include a series of adaptation and mitigation actions, intended to radically improve the region's resilience to climate change.
Urban Klima 2050 will build cross-cutting actions to introduce a range of resilience instruments in cities and towns. It will give public authorities a place as role models in combatting climate change. It will implement innovative actions that can be applied in target sectors. It will generate knowledge that can be incorporated into decision-making processes. It will create participation processes for co-designing solutions with key agents and the general public and it will empower citizens to make a lasting commitment to the environment.
Through these actions, Urban Klima 2050 will transform the region, coordinating a total of 40 climate-change adaptation projects and actions over its six-year lifespan. It will also facilitate the effective roll-out of the Basque Climate Change Strategy.
