Second Progress Report on the German Strategy for Adaptation to Climate Change (DAS)

The German government is meeting the challenges of climate change with the German Strategy for Adaptation to Climate Change (DAS). This is intended to ensure that the existing objectives of the sectoral policies can also be realized under the conditions of climate change. The DAS provides a political framework for adaptation to climate change that enables a cross-sectoral approach by the federal government.

Currently, the monitoring report is updated every four years. The evaluation is also conducted every four years. The DAS was updated in 2015 and 2020 as part of progress reports and adopted by the federal government. Together with the progress reports, the measures of the action plans are currently updated every four years.
