A@A Knowledge Network ‘Solution Showcase’: the cryosphere edition

Date and time

Tuesday, October 29 · 1 – 2pm GMT (London)

Summary

Join us for the first Adaptation at Altitude Knowledge Network ‘solution showcase’! This showcase will focus on the cryosphere, with a series of speed talks on adaptation technologies, approaches, or processes that are addressing the impacts of climate change on glaciers, snow, ice, and permafrost in mountainous regions.

Want to participate?

Does your climate change adaptation project/initiative in mountains: 

• Explore and apply technologies, approaches, and/or processes to adapt to the actual or expected impacts on and risks posed by glacial retreat, snow and ice melt, and/or permafrost thaw? 

• Harness benefits to livelihoods, economies, and the environment? 

• Demonstrate financial, economic, and environmental sustainability and have the potential to be feasibly scaled‐up and duplicated in other mountain regions? 

If so, we want to hear from you! 

Present your adaptation technologies, approaches, or processes in our upcoming Adaptation at Altitude Knowledge Network “Solution Showcase”. We will feature solutions that meet the criteria on our Adaptation at Altitude Solutions Portal and highlight them in a visual output for the 2025 UN International Year of Glaciers’ Preservation.

About the A@A Knowledge Network

The Adaptation at Altitude programme, funded by the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC), seeks to support mountain communities and those working with them by improving the knowledge of appropriate climate change adaptation strategies in the mountains, and transferring that knowledge through science–policy platforms to inform decision-making in national, regional and global policy processes.

The Adaptation at Altitude (A@A) Knowledge Network is a global community through which we can share experiences and knowledge on adaptation in the mountains and collaborate to accelerate the uptake of innovative solutions.
