Presented by: Patrick Blankers
7.3 Information and Communication Technologies in adaptation
The session will address the integration of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) in climate change adaptation. Through presentation of key concepts and practical examples, the session will look at: how processes in various applications can be optimized and adapted according to changing climate conditions through internet of things (IoT); application of ICTs in food production systems and disaster risk reduction.

Example 1:
Connected Vineyards (Germany)
To examine the benefits that IoT is
providing, and its potential to scale within
the winemaking industry, as well as the
impact it could have on other industries.

Example 2:
Connected mangroves (Malaysia)
Mangroves are a crossroad where oceans,
freshwater, and land realms meet. They are
among the most productive and complex
ecosystems on the planet, growing under
environmental conditions that would kill
ordinary plants very quickly.

The project
Sensors monitor weather, soil,
temperature, fire alarm and weather
levels every 10 minutes
Information can be accessed real time
by community, researchers and

1. Define and agree a vision, strategy, and targets
2. Create informed networked governance structures
3. Engage with all relevant stakeholders
4. Start with a pilot, evaluate (technology, processes), scale up
5. Forge and foster long-term partnerships
Recommendations
For IoT solutions w.r.t. sustainability
โThe possibilities are numerous once we decide to act and not reactโ
