The A9 Project in Context (presentation): Positioning the A9 project in the context of global and national research, policy and planning on adaptation. And some of the lessons learnt and outcomes to date.

Sharing Practice and Highlighting Activity (interactive): Insights into six ‘spin-off’ activities (see below) that have taken place either as part of the A9 project or have been influenced by/arisen from the A9 project. Short presentations followed by group discussion - how these tools and approaches could be applied elsewhere.

Retrospective review (interactive): Participants’ feedback on the A9 project including aims and objectives, the most useful aspects of project, practical examples/stories, and what hasn't worked well etc.

Looking ahead (interactive): Exploring ways of taking forward adaptation planning - future needs and issues/constraints, possible partnerships and the role that Adaptation Scotland can play.
