TiCCA4Danu (Transformative Innovation for Climate Change Adaptation in the Danube Region) is an international research and innovation project under Horizon Europe that develops and tests a transformative innovation framework to accelerate just climate change adaptation (CCA) in Danube city\u2011regions. The project focuses on four \u201canchor cities\u201d and their surrounding regions, representing different bio\u2011geographical settings in the Danube macro\u2011region (coastal, mountain and continental).<\/a>\u200b<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Objective<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

TiCCA4Danu aims to remove structural barriers to climate change adaptation at city\u2011region level by applying a systems\u2011level Transformative Innovation Policy (TIP) approach. The project links TIP with Local Green Deals and other local governance instruments to ensure that CCA is just, inclusive and aligned with broader EU climate and regional strategies.<\/a>\u200b<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Project approach<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The project combines analytical work, experimentation and stakeholder engagement to co\u2011design adaptation pathways with public authorities, businesses, vulnerable groups and civil society. It tests novel governance models, policy mixes and financing approaches, aiming to upscale successful solutions through the EU Strategy for the Danube Region and EU\u2011wide dissemination events.<\/a>\u200b<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pilot regions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

TiCCA4Danu concentrates its activities on four anchor cities and their wider territories in the Danube macro\u2011region: Burgas and the surrounding Burgas District (Bulgaria), Debrecen and Hajd\u00fa\u2011Bihar County (Hungary), Maribor and the Podravje region (Slovenia), and Suceava and the Nord\u2011Est region (Romania), including links to neighbouring areas in Turkey and Ukraine. These demonstration territories allow the project to explore climate risks, adaptation options and governance innovations across different climatic and socio\u2011economic contexts.<\/a>\u200b<\/p>\n\n\n\n
