Maximising Adaptation to Climate Change (MACC) Hub Annual Conference

Climate Change will have profound impacts across the UK. By addressing the root causes of vulnerability and inequality, we can better prepare for these changes while delivering benefits for society. This approach is at the heart of the MACC Hub. Attending the conference will give you the opportunity to learn more about adaptation action taking place around the UK through the Hub, and to share your insights to help shape its future activities.

The conference is being organised by the Scotland spoke of the MACC Hub, led by Scottish charity Verture, and Glasgow University.
