The funding programme "Austrian Climate Research Programme" (ACRP) focuses on the impacts of climate change and its solutions, adaptation, mitigation, and their interrelationships. Its aim is to provide a scientific basis for implementing Austria's climate change adaptation strategy, the Austrian government's integrated national climate and energy plan, and the Paris Agreement in Austria.
