    What this call funds

    This call funds a large research project that will create standardized, trustworthy climate data and climate services to help EU countries, regions, and businesses better prepare for climate change. It aims to establish common reference climate data sets and scenarios usable across the EU, and to standardize how climate services are built and used so they can reliably inform adaptation decisions in areas like infrastructure, finance, health, and agriculture.
