The Belgian Adaptation Hub organises regular topical workshops to establish knowledge exchange and learning opportunities around existing strengths and bottlenecks of the Belgian Adaptation governance. Key stakeholders include the Federal Public Service Health, Food Chain Safety and Environment; the Flemish Department of Environment and Spatial Development; the Belgian Climate Risk Assessment Center (Cerac); and the Walloon Air and Climate Agency (AWAC). 

The Belgian Adaptation Hub supports local, regional and national governments in moving from planning to implementation through practical support, peer learning, and proven solutions.
