Amendment 70 #

The priority area Climate Change Adaptation should therefore contribute to adapt to such impacts across populations, economic sectors and regions to ensure a more resilient Unionenvironment through specific adaptation measures and strategies. Actions in this field should be complementary to actions eligible for funding under the civil protection financial instrument and mainly focus on ecosystem-based approaches, supporting cost-efficient co-benefits with other environmental objectives.
