This webinar gives an overview of the evolution of CEN-CENELEC Guide 32:2026, a practical tool to support CEN and CENELEC Technical Committees in integrating climate resilience into standards development.
Participants will gain a clear understanding of why climate adaptation is increasingly relevant for European standardization and how standards can be future proofed against changing climate conditions, extreme weather and climate related system risks.
The webinar will demonstrate how the Guide 32 can be applied in practice, focusing on its screening, diagnostic and embedding approaches to systematically address climate risks. Real-world insights from pilot applications and climate resilience reviews will illustrate benefits, challenges and lessons learned and thereby promoting the consistent consideration of climate risks across all sectors.
Expert support to TCs is available and will be offered to assist in future-proofing their Standards.
