Also Known As:
The DIN EN ISO 14091 standard provides comprehensive guidance for assessing the risks associated with climate change impacts. It emphasizes the importance of understanding vulnerability and provides a framework for the development and implementation of effective risk assessment processes. Additionally, this standard is applicable to organizations of all sizes and types, allowing for broad application of its principles.
The standard aims to support organizations in enhancing their climate change adaptation efforts by offering guidance on identifying priorities for adaptation actions. By implementing the risk assessment methodologies outlined in this standard, organizations can establish a solid foundation for climate change adaptation planning, implementation, and monitoring and evaluation. With the focus on both present and future climate change risks, this standard provides a comprehensive approach to addressing the challenges posed by climate change and its impacts.
