Join the Adaptation at Altitude (A@A) Knowledge Network ‘base camp’ event on 20 October at 1pm UK time. The event will bring together participants to exchange and learn about climate change adaptation in mountains. 

Mountains feature some of the clearest indications of climate change. Rising temperatures, melting glaciers and changing precipitation patterns are disrupting water flows and affecting ecosystems, creating and worsening natural hazards, and threatening livelihoods and communities both within mountains and downstream.  

Each mountain region is unique, but the communities that reside in them also experience shared challenges opportunities. Sharing solutions/projects, best practices, and lessons learned can inspire and accelerate action and collaboration in mountain communities worldwide. As the phrase ‘base camp’ connotes, the A@A Knowledge Network event will provide an informal space to bring people together across the globe, share and exchange knowledge, and help us prepare for our own adaptation journeys – whether that be devising projects, implementing actions, or strengthening partnerships.  

Are you a researcher, practitioner, or policy maker interested in climate adaptation in mountain regions? Join us to connect, exchange, and learn from diverse experiences and innovative solutions across mountain regions worldwide! 

If you are interested in presenting your work during the meeting please email adaptationataltitude@zoinet.org to express your interest by COB 7 October 2026.
