Abstract

Strategy for Adaptation to Climate Change in the Republic of Moldova until 2020 is a cross-sectoral policy document, which examines planned sectoral climate changes for the Republic of Moldova based on an analysis of the risks and benefits caused by climate changes in specific regions of the country. This analysis was carried out in order to determine the “hot spots” of climate risks, where immediate action is required to adapt to this phenomenon. Risk levels are classified as follows: 1) high - a high probability of risk due to possible climate changes, which requires immediate attention from responsible persons to develop urgent adaptation measures; 2) medium - the average probability of risk caused by possible climate change, which is subject to monitoring; and 3) low - low probability of risk due to possible climate change, which is subject to monitoring. It is expected that existing adaptation measures will be sufficient and no additional measures will be necessary if the circumstances remain unchanged.
