Title: Leading the UK Adaptation Agenda: A Landscape of Stakeholders and Networked Organizations for Adaptation to Climate Change
Abstract: This chapter is a review of the landscape of adaptation science and policy stakeholders and networks in the United Kingdom. The aim is to broadly map the key stakeholders and the activities in the science and policy sectors, and across regions and the Devolved Administrations. This is done to gain a better understanding of the range and scope of adaptation actions in the United Kingdom to date. The chapter makes advances in understanding the evolution of the UK adaptation landscape and demonstrates how adaptation policy and science are building adaptive capacity across institutions and networks. We conclude that adaptation policy and actions represent a change to living with climate change futures. The chapter also highlights that there remain significant challenges ahead, in particular in the realm of science.
