Abstract
Research and policy relating to climate change risks and adaptation have been developing in the UK since the 1990s.
The 2008 Climate Change Act established much of the framework for UK climate risk assessment and adaptation management.
The UK Climate Resilience Programme was funded from 2018–2023 to address research gaps in characterising and quantifying climate risks, managing climate related risks through adaptation, and co-producing climate services.
From the outset, the programme prioritised co-production, innovation, trans-disciplinary research, and working with stakeholders to ensure outputs were useful and usable.
