REHUBS aims to address the issues of climate vulnerability in rural areas and in rural and small-to-medium communities, which face risks like droughts, heatwaves, wildfires, floods, and biodiversity loss. The project’s goal is to empower rural and small/medium local communities to enhance their climate resilience, promote their twin green and digital transition and contribute to the broader goals of climate adaptation in Europe.




GIB is leading the task on Rural Financing Instruments. The objective is to identify and analyze existing and innovative financial and funding sources, mechanisms, and instruments that can be leveraged to finance climate adaptation measures by focusing on understanding the local rural context, enablers, barriers, and capacity needs and engaging public and private sector stakeholders.
