Local Insights: A Conversation with Real World Lab Practitioners

Join the first webinar in the DIRECTED Webinar Series exploring how Real World Labs are helping regions turn climate risk analysis into real-world decisions.

In this webinar, practitioners from multiple regions will join Dr Max Steinhausen, DIRECTED Project Coordinator, to reflect candidly on how the RWL model works in practice – what enabled progress, where tensions emerged, and which elements are transferable to other European contexts. The session will examine how the RWL approach supports adaptive governance, cross-sector collaboration and risk-informed decision-making under uncertainty.

Participants will gain practical insights into how participatory, evidence-informed processes can strengthen disaster risk management and climate adaptation planning across Europe. The insights will be particularly relevant to regional authorities, EU-funded projects and policymakers seeking scalable models for participatory resilience governance.
