D4.1 Assessment of baseline conditions of DSs
Year: 2022
Type: article
Abstract: This public deliverable presents the initial implementation framework for Work Package 4 and establishes the basis for demonstrating 27 technological and non-technological climate adaptation solutions across the seven IMPETUS Demonstration Sites. Developed under Task 4.1.1, it defines the starting conditions, partner roles, implementation steps, timelines, prerequisites, barriers and key performance indicators associated with each solution. The deliverable organises the WP4 activities around the seven regional Demo Sites and four solution bundles: Nature-based Solutions, Innovative Technologies, Financing and Insurance, and Governance Models, Awareness and Behavioural Change. For each case, it describes the regional climate challenge, technical background and planned actions required to deploy and assess the corresponding adaptation solutions. D4.1 also establishes the monitoring framework needed to evaluate implementation progress and solution performance. This includes the definition of indicators and expected data flows to support other IMPETUS activities, particularly the development of Adaptation Pathways, Innovation Packages and risk-management assessments in WP3-WP5. The deliverable is also closely linked to stakeholder engagement activities in WP1 and to the wider objective of fostering replication and knowledge exchange between regions. Overall, D4.1 provides the operational baseline for the deployment of adaptation solutions in IMPETUS. It sets out how the project will move from initial conditions and planning to demonstration, monitoring and scaling, while ensuring that the lessons learned across the seven regions can later support transferability and replication.
