S6E2 - How Could We? Support cities and regions to build climate resilience

In this special episode recorded at #ClimateWeekNYC, we sit down with Eleni Myrivili, the first Chief Heat Officer in Europe and a board member of the EU Mission on Adaptation to Climate Change.

Myrivili shares her expertise on how cities and regions can better adapt to the climate crisis, especially extreme heat. She also explains the importance of Pathways2Resilience, a project led by Climate KIC to support 100 regions in Europe to build a path to climate resilience.

Together, we explore how is heat impacting our systems, the challenges European cities and regions face in implementing climate adaptation plans, the importance ofmulti-level governance and the need for coordinated financing and capacity-building efforts.
