Plenty to take in on Day 2 of #ECCA2025 – strong focus on turning knowledge into action. Resilience, climate security, adaptation finance, citizen assemblies… All pointing to the same thing: we need joined-up thinking and practical tools to drive real change. But adaptation isn’t just about infrastructure – it’s about people. #Physiology shows us how climate impacts the body, and that insight is crucial for effective action. 🏝️And Day 2 finished with a great dinner on the beach.
