The Managing Authority del PR Campania FESR 2021-2027, when defining the selection criteria for operations, included compliance with the DNSH principle and climate proofing among the eligibility requirements. 

L‘Office for the Verification of Environmental criteria and climate has carried out a technical-scientific deepening based on data (ISPRA source) of climate scenario evolution in order to provide implementers, beneficiaries and designers with operational and procedural guidance for the integration of possible mitigation and adaptation measures for the reduction of any risks identified.

Using the geo-referenced data available on the portal of the National Plan for Adaptation to Climate Change (PNACC) relating to reference climate basic (current climate) and the expected scenarios (future climate), superimposing them on the municipal administrative boundaries in Campania, were made municipal maps for significant climatic hazards related to intense and persistent rainfall, drought, heat waves and cold.

In order to identify the potential exposure to climate hazards, the territorial characteristics with the greatest influence were also assessed according to each individual climate hazard. The level of sensitivity infrastructure and the level of exposition on a municipal basis with respect to these climate hazards and the level of vulnerability infrastructure to climate hazards.

The Managing Authority of PR Campania FESR 2021-2027 has approved, with Executive Decree No 187 of 13 September 2024, the document “Technical tools and operational guidelines for the preparation of the climate assessment study – adaptation pillar’, including its Appendices:
