Peer reviews on Transformative Innovation for Climate Change Adaptation – The national case: Slovenia

This 2025 publication explains the process and results of a peer review exercise in Slovenia on transformative innovation for better climate change adaptation, organized by the European Commission's Joint Research Centre (JRC) in autumn 2024. The main goal of the exercise was to help the volunteering territory to define pathways towards integrating transformative innovation in their climate adaptation strategies, based on learning and exchanges with peers.

The Peer Reviews followed up on case studies published throughout 2024 on a diverse set of EU territories that also served as a starting point of the analysis of the CCA implementation bottlenecks. Among the 14 case study territories in the Autumn 2024 three territories volunteered to undergo peer review process which were also representative of three territorial levels: National (Slovenia), regional (region Blekinge, Sweden) and urban (City of Turku, Finland).
