Integrated Research Infrastructure Services for Climate Change Risks

Climate change presents a complex existential threat, demanding a unified and comprehensive response. IRISCC recognises this urgency and acts as a collaborative force, bringing together the expertise and resources of numerous Research Infrastructures. This unique collaboration allows us to establish a robust service portfolio with transnational and virtual access provision to integrated RI services.

IRISCC delivers on its ambitious goals through three key actions:

User and Stakeholder Engagement (Pillar I): This pillar ensures user-centric service development through co-creation and collaboration. Activities include communications & engagement campaigns, workshops, training, and knowledge sharing to build capacity and ensure wide-ranging impact.

Service Integration (Pillar II): This pillar focuses on integrating existing capabilities across RIs. It accomplishes this through “Demonstrators” covering various climate change risks, fostering collaboration and knowledge exchange.

Service Provision (Pillar III): This pillar makes integrated services accessible through the IRISCC Catalogue of Services. The Catalogue offers a range of access options, from virtual access to on-site visits, catering to diverse user needs.
