KEY MESSAGES

• Half of the European countries surveyed report that they were considering transnational cooperation in their national adaptation policy processes.
• Shared natural resources such as transboundary watercourses have motivated transnational cooperation in adaptation.
• Transnational cooperation in adaptation has often emerged with the support of European funding instruments and in the context of established cooperation fora, such as European regional conventions.
• There is no apparent relation between the degree to which transnational cooperation is considered in a country’s national adaptation policy process and the stage of the adaptation policy process that a country is in.
• Instead of setting up new platforms for transnational cooperation in adaptation, further integration of adaptation into existing conventions and other institutions for cooperation can strengthen transnational adaptation efforts.
