IRISCC, with a budget of almost €15 million, is a 54-month project with a mission to bolster society’s capacity to tackle climate change risks and build resilience. It achieves this by offering researchers focusing on climate change risks access to interdisciplinary research platforms and data. IRISCC offers access to complementary and interdisciplinary European and national RIs, encompassing observatories, experimental facilities, advanced modelling tools, and robust data infrastructures.
IRISCC fosters challenge-driven and interdisciplinary research on climate-change-related multi-hazard risks. This empowers informed decision-making, propelling Europe’s adaptation and resilience strategies. The project is committed to open knowledge sharing and wide capacity building and it offers training programs to equip the new generation of researchers with the skills to use these integrated research services for impactful climate change risk research.
