Regional Adaptation Support Tool - Getting Started
How to use the Regional Adaptation Support Tool
The Regional Adaptation Support Tool (RAST) is designed to help local and regional authorities with climate change adaptation strategies and plans – from development and implementation to monitoring, evaluating and updating them. RAST provides practical guidance in 6 steps aligned with the key features of climate adaptation policy processes.
This flexible and iterative tool adapts to your local or regional authority's policy-making progress and unique local context. Whether starting from scratch or further along in the policy process, you can find guidance on the steps that are relevant for you.
Each step includes an overview and detailed support section, with guidance supplemented by resources (data providers, examples, tools) from the EU Mission on Adaptation, Climate-ADAPT and other partners helping local and regional authorities across the European Union.
If you work for a city administration, consider the guidance of the Urban Adaptation Support Tool, which is tailored to the needs of towns and cities.
