Integrated mechanisms for horizontal and vertical coordination
Italy, Finland, Portugal
While most countries have opted for separate institutional set-ups for horizontal and vertical coordination mechanisms, some countries use the same mechanisms for both coordination tasks. In Italy, the Institutional Panel coordinated by the Ministry for Environment, Land and Sea includes representatives from relevant ministries and other institutional stakeholders such as regional and local administrations. In Finland, the Coordination Group for Climate Change Adaptation led by the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry has representatives from sector ministries, regional and local authorities and research institutes. Regional and local level stakeholders were not members of the original Coordination Group appointed in 2008, but were invited to join the group when it was re-established in 2012 based on challenges experienced in coordination of adaptation activities across administrative levels. Likewise in Portugal the coordination group that supports the National Strategy (ENAAC) includes representation of sub-national level stakeholders in the form of the National Municipalities Association and autonomous regions of the islands of Madeira and the Azores.

For Portugal:
We suggest a text revision:
Likewise in Portugal, the coordination group that supports the National Strategy (ENAAC) includes representation of sub-national level stakeholders since the coordinators of each sector are responsible for the articulation between their governmental entity and the diverse sectorial stakeholders acting on different territorial scales.
