The concept
Climate Chance continues its mission of mobilising and working with a wide range of stakeholders on the major challenges of adapting to and mitigating climate change in Africa and Europe. Thus, every month we present a Climate Action eMag.
A few months ahead of the 3 COPs at the end of 2024 (climate, biodiversity and desertification), Climate Chance presents a new cycle of eMags for the year, focusing on two areas: climate action in Africa and adaptation in Europe.
Each month, the eMag offers a space for sharing news, best practices and feedback, expertise and exchanges, based on the Observatory‘s analyses. Climate Chance thus pursues its mission of mobilising and working with a wide range of stakeholders on the major challenges of adapting to and mitigating climate change in Africa and Europe.
Therefore, the 2024 cycle of eMags focuses on two areas: climate action in Africa and adaptation in Europe.
Each issue focuses on an issue linked to the major challenges, news and Agenda of Action.
The eMag has a dual format: a 1.15 hour live online session featuring representatives from European and African territories, experts and field actors from the « climate community », for each theme covered, followed by a print and web magazine, all fully bilingual (French and English).
2024 Calendar
Next event
- On Thursday March 28, the 1st eMag of 2024 will look at adaptation in Europe and the role of regions in the planning and implementation of multi-level adaptation policies in Europe. This is an opportunity to continue the work carried out during the Climate Chance Europe 2024 Wallonia Summit, the 1st international event on adaptation issues, and to convey the messages of the Liège Declaration. It will also be an opportunity to discover the findings of the Observatory’s new study: « Adaptation planning and implementation in the EU: the state of multi-level integration of adaptation policies ».
Upcoming events
- Thursday April 25: eMag Climate Action in Africa on sustainable housing.
- Thursday May 30: eMag adaptation in Europe on social justice in adaptation policies.

Virtual Workshops in 2020 and 2021
In 2020-2021, Climate Chance led several Virtual Workshops, organised with the support of CoMSSA and the European Union.
These Workshops, organised against a backdrop of a health crisis, have enabled us to renew contact with our African Coalitions, discuss the impacts of COVID-19 on their sectors (adaptation, agriculture, energy, transport, circular economy, etc.) and, in the absence of a Climate Chance Africa Summit in 2020, continue working via roadmaps. Key figures were invited to share their views on the major challenges facing their sectors. They also drew on the work and analyses of the Climate Chance Observatory.
