Czechia's National Adaptation Map: connecting stakeholders, resources and projects for coordinated adaptation action
Making adaptation work starts with knowing who is already doing it - Czechia's National Adaptation Hub is bringing the country's adaptation community together on one shared digital map.
Effective adaptation depends on knowing who is working on what, where, and how. The Czech National Adaptation Hub is supporting this through the National Adaptation Map, a public portal that gives easy access to the projects and stakeholders working on climate adaptation across government, regions, cities and municipalities. Launched publicly at National Adaptation Day on 15 September 2026, the map offers a shared space where practitioners can exchange experience, find partners and connect with anyone active in adaptation across the country.
The map is the result of a wide-ranging collaborative effort that convened ministries, regional authorities, academic institutions, non-profit organisations and individual experts. It now features 175 organisations, together with their projects and a growing set of shared resources, linking stakeholders with funding opportunities, institutions and ongoing initiatives across sectors. Users can browse the directory or explore the map to see where adaptation activity is concentrated and who to work with.
By bringing this information into one place, the map supports coherent, strategic cooperation at national, regional and local levels. It gives ministries a clearer view of activity on the ground, helps cities and municipalities find expertise and partners, and makes local initiatives visible to national and European audiences. The approach was shared with European partners at the AdaptationHubs partner meeting in Prague in October.
The map is continuing to expand as its use grows across the country. Several ministries and the capital City of Prague have already expressed interest in adopting or contributing to it, supporting its growth and enabling deeper cooperation on adaptation at national level.
Czechia's National Adaptation Map illustrates how a digital public infrastructure can connect strategy with implementation and support stakeholder coordination and adaptation action across all levels of governance.
