The Eyre Peninsula’s commitment to responding to climate change is outlined in the Eyre Peninsula Climate Change Agreement. In 2014, the body responsible for implementing this Agreement, the Eyre Peninsula Regional Climate Change Agreement Committee (EPICCA) released its Regional Climate Change Adaptation Plan for the Eyre Peninsula. Compared with past adaptation planning approaches in the region and elsewhere in Australia, EPICCA adopted an adaptation pathways approach. In this presentation, we will discuss the challenges of using an Adaptation Pathways planning approach, focussing on why we chose a pathways approach, what worked and what didn’t, and the next steps for continued adaptation planning on the Eyre Peninsula.
