The Special Climate Change Fund (SCCF) Project “Enhancing regional climate change adaptation in the Mediterranean Marine and Coastal Areas” contributes to MedProgramme Component II: Enhancing Sustainability and Climate Resilience in the Coastal Zone. To enhance climate resilience in this coastal area, national stakeholders have requested the development of recommendations to mainstream adaptation into the Coastal Plan (the Schéma régional du littoral) for TTA. 

This gender-sensitive climate risk assessment, produced by Plan Bleu with the technical support by the Mediterranean Sea and Coast Foundation (MEDSEA) in January 2022, supports efforts to enhance coastal resilience to climate change in a sustainable and inclusive manner, identifying how women and men are differently affected by climate risks and how they can enhance their resilience to climate change. To this end, Plan Bleu and MEDSEA have built upon existing methods and tools that have been previously used in the Mediterranean and in Morocco, and are recognised as appropriate and beneficial. More specifically, the methodology of this assessment is based on the multi-scale coastal risk index (MS-CRI).
