Maximising UK Adaptation to Climate Change Hub

The UK faces escalating climate risks, from floods and urban heat to food supply disruptions and ecological degradation. At the Maximising UK Adaptation to Climate Change (MACC) Hub, we are addressing these challenges head-on by advancing transformative climate adaptation strategies that safeguard communities, ecosystems, and the economy. Co-funded by UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) and Defra, the MACC Hub brings together leading academic institutions, adaptation partnerships, and knowledge exchange organizations to drive systemic change. Our mission is to unlock the potential for a well-adapted UK by fostering collaboration, innovation, and evidence-based decision-making. What We Do: 1. Build Skills and Partnerships: Strengthening stakeholders with training, capacity-building, and inclusive engagement to deepen knowledge and participation. 2. Generate Data and Knowledge: Creating open-access tools like OpenCLIM-Adapt and conducting cutting-edge research to inform action. 3. Link Knowledge, Policy, and Practice: Translating insights into actionable strategies through Policy Labs, a Policy Response Unit, and a Knowledge Portal. 4. Innovate Through Funding: Supporting transformative, community-focused projects that drive systemic change.
