EU Cities Adapt or Adaptation Strategies for European Cities is a project commissioned by the European Commission's Directorate-General for Climate Action DG CLIMA. The aim of the project is to provide capacity building and assistance for cities across Europe in developing and implementing a climate change adaptation strategy by raising awareness throughout Europe on the importance of preparing for climate change in cities, exchanging knowledge and good practices, and developing tools and guidance for cities on adaptation.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=EU Cities Adapt official website )〕 It ultimately aims to mainstream urban climate adaptation throughout Europe.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Climate Change Policy and Practice, Guest article #79 by Holger Robrecht 'The future of Europe depends on strong and resilient cities' )〕 The EU Cities Adapt project is the beginning of DG CLIMA's engagement and support for European cities on urban climate adaptation.
