Adaptation Training for Universities and Colleges

Adaptation Scotland are offering a one day training opportunity for delegates to learn more about what climate change adaptation is, why it is important, and what is involved in working through an adaptation process.

This training has been designed to support institutions develop the skills they need to begin to tackle the adaptation challenge at their institution, and complete the adaptation section of the Public Sector Climate Change Reporting template in advance of the November deadline. The training session will explore the difference between mitigation and adaptation, point delegates to some useful resources, and help them get started.

Guest speakers from two universities leading in this area will also describe their experiences of working on adaptation.

This day is aimed at those seeking more guidance on adaptation from universities and colleges and may be particularly relevant to estate managers, operations and facilities managers, risk managers or environment or climate change officers.
