The recently concluded Climate Adaptation Summit (CAS) 2021 was the first time that world leaders have gathered at a global event focused solely on adaptation and resilience.
It was hosted virtually by the Netherlands Government, and the outcome was the creation of an Adaptation Action Agenda to help realize the transitions required for a climate-resilient world.
While the political profile of the event was secured through the participation of 22 Heads of State and more than 50 ministers and leaders of international organizations, thousands more watched the sessions that were live streamed from time zones across the globe.
