ACT Adaptation Methodology

The Article 7 of the Paris Agreement defines the global goal of “enhancing adaptive capacity, strengthening resilience and reducing vulnerabilities to climate change”. 

To support this goal, ADEME developed the ACT Adaptation methodology. It aims at assessing the adaptation strategy of companies from all sectors, from physical risks analysis to governance and decision-making.

As part of the ACT Initiative methodology development process, the aim is to test this ACT Adaptation methodology with 10 to 15 volunteered companies that started their physical risks analysis and adaptation strategy, with the help of experienced consultants.
