13–15 January 2025 | Prague (CZ)

During the second INACO partner meeting in Prague, the participating organisations exchanged insights on the first project results and coordinated the next steps. In addition to the professional discussions, the meeting also offered an opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of key challenges in the local context — particularly along the Vltava River and in the Prague‑Troja district.

The INACO project presents the 'Joined integrated strategies for enhancing the resilience of CNH sites exposed to climate risks in CE river basin districts' to strengthen the resilience of cultural and natural heritage (CNH) sites in Central European river basin districts against climate change. It identifies gaps in EU climate and water policies, classifies vulnerable heritage types (coastal, lakeside, inland), and outlines risk management approaches. Based on transnational cooperation and dialogue with public authorities, the strategy promotes local adaptation measures and provides recommendations for future site-specific plans.
