The Energy and Resources Institute will co-host the Adaptation Futures 2020 with the World Adaptation Science Programme (WASP) in Delhi from April 27-30, 2020. It is the sixth in the Adaptation Futures international conference series on global adaptation and the first to be held in Asia. Adaptation Futures is the flagship event of the World Adaptation Science Program, which is one of the four components of World Climate Programme (WCP) based on the World Meteorological Organisation Congress XVI Resolution 18. As a premier event in the global adaptation spectrum, Adaptation Futures is a unique platform to facilitate dialogues towards action oriented solutions from a diverse range of stakeholders that includes academia, practitioners, scientists and policy makers from across the world.

Our climate is changing. Our world is getting hotter. Our weather is becoming more volatile. Through intelligent intervention, however, we can adapt and bolster our resilience to these new climate extremes. Delivering this demands global cooperation and partnership. To drive the urgent action required, the Global Commission on Adaptation has launched its “Year of Action”, a series of initiatives intended to see the delivery of practical measures to #AdaptOurWorld to the looming threat of climate change.
