The number and scope of web-based platforms in Europe providing information on adaptation is increasing. These go beyond those identified within the self-assessment survey and, in addition to national platforms, include transnational platforms and the European Climate Change Adaptation Platform. At the recent CIRCLE2/EEA Workshop on ‘Adaptation Platforms in Europe: Addressing challenges and sharing lessons’ (Vienna, November 2013), those managing or considering developing such platforms came together to share experiences, lessons learnt and challenges. The adaptation platforms available in Europe are presented in Table 2.3.

A link to ClimateAdapt could be included here. This provides a good overview of existing portals and other relevant sites (e.g. in the Netherlands)
Will add a link within the text/table
Poland: Polish adaptation portal is missing:
title: KLIMADA
link: http://klimada.mos.gov.pl/
