Researchers from Vestlandsforsking will be represented at Arendalsuka, the largest political gathering in Norway. This year, we present a wide range of events highliting important issues and dilemmas related to nature, inclusion in the twin green and digital shift, climate risk, and local social development. We invite partners, decision-makers, and all interested parties to meet us for talks and discussions in Arendal.

A new service called Norwegian Climate Monitor was launched on 13 December 2021 in Sogndal. The purpose of the initiative is to collect and share new data on climate change adaptation from all parts of society. "This is an important contribution to Norwegian society" says Carlo Aall, the Head of Noradapt. "Bot research and governance are impatient to learn how far climate adaptation measures have come. Unfortunately, our data show that the pace remains too slow", says Aall.
