The ADAM project is a FP6 funded integrated research project consisting of more than 20 research institutes in 15 countries. The project is co-ordinated by the Tyndall Centre for Climate Change Research in the UK. The project will lead to a better understanding of the trade-offs that exist between adaptation and mitigation policies and looks among other at future scenarios, appraisal methods for climate policies, policy options and instruments for reducing greenhouse gas emissions, impacts, vulnerabilities and ways to cope with these. CEPS will contribute to the project by organising 6 science-policy workshops and policy briefs. It participates furthermore in the team that analyses options for the future climate change regime.
