Climate security is a new perspective on climate work. Climate security consists of mitigating and adapting to climate change. Adaptation is urgently needed everywhere in society, as extreme weather resulting from climate change are increasing at an accelerating rate and have a direct impact on regional development and the future of industries. The aim of the project is to increase preparedness and resilience of agriculture and forestry in Northern Savo in relation to extreme weather. The aim is also to influence people’s daily lives, human security, such as water, food and health. The project will create a climate security business network and climate security learning environment that supports North Savo’s agriculture and forestry industries.
The project contributes to the development of the competitiveness and vitality of the business of the Northern Savo agriculture and forestry sector and to the sustainable use of renewable natural resources.
