Examples have a focus on environmental sectors such as water and forestry. Besides environment-related policies, mainstreaming adaptation into other policies has been mentioned, especially health by southern European countries. In addition, a few countries report efforts in integrating adaptation into infrastructure and building codes (Belgium, France, Denmark) or electricity (Finland). Guidelines for mainstreaming adaptation into Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) processes are noted by Ireland and Slovenia.
