Deliverable D1.3 introduces the Climate Impact Coping Typology, defining six evidence-based citizen behaviour types and an open-source Behaviour Model based on a transnational survey, to support the assessment of response risks and integration into the KNOWING Impact Interaction Modelling Framework.
Deliverable D1.4 introduces the first version of the Climate Interaction Knowledge Base – a graph database that maps climate hazards, risks, and responses to support decision-making and stakeholder engagement. It outlines the system design, data sources, and planned future expansions.
Deliverable D1.5 presents the final version of the KNOWING Climate Interaction Knowledge Base, an integrated graph-based data platform that consolidates project knowledge on climate hazards, sectoral impacts, risks, and adaptation/mitigation measures across four European regions. It provides open access to structured knowledge and pre-processed project reports through a web interface and public API, supporting exploration of interconnections and trade-offs between climate interventions for policy makers, researchers, and application developers.
Deliverable D2.1 presents a qualitative system dynamics model that maps causal relationships between climate risks, adaptation and mitigation measures, and sectoral responses. It uses causal loop diagrams to illustrate complex interactions across sectors and serves as the conceptual foundation for building a quantitative model in the next project phase.
Deliverable D2.3 presents the KNOWING project’s approach to calibrating System Dynamics models with domain models to improve integrated climate impact assessments. It introduces a structured calibration methodology to support adaptation and mitigation pathway analysis across different regions and Climate Impact Contexts.
Deliverable D2.4 presents an advanced modelling framework that integrates a System Dynamics model with multiple domain models (e.g. energy, transport, climate, health) to analyse climate impacts, mitigation, and adaptation strategies. It enables the assessment of cross-sector interactions, feedback loops, and intervention pathways, supporting data-driven decision-making and future scenario analysis.
This deliverable presents a system dynamics-based backcasting approach and a transferability framework, identifying archetypal regions in Europe to support the broader application of climate mitigation and adaptation pathways. The transferability concept is tested in a proof-of-concept at the European level through archetype and similarity analyses.
For quantifying the envisioned climate mitigation pathways, modelling of specific climate mitigation and adaptation interventions as well as their impact on each other is crucial. This deliverable presents the background information on the regions, the models and interventions suitable for each demonstrator. Furthermore, a detailed plan and timeline of the domain model simulations for the region-specific mitigation and adaptation measures within KNOWING is given.
Deliverable D3.3 outlines climate mitigation and adaptation pathways for the city of Tallinn, focusing on heat and health risks. It combines results from multiple domain models (energy, transport, urban climate, health, behaviour) to define an integrated pathway towards climate neutrality by 2050. The report highlights key interventions, stakeholder inputs, and sector interdependencies supporting sustainable urban transformation.
Deliverable 3.4 presents the modelling and assessment of integrated climate mitigation and adaptation pathways for the CIC2 demonstrator regions (Napoli and Granollers), including domain model results, scenario analysis, and stakeholder-relevant pathway development.
Deliverable 3.5 provides a comprehensive modelling and assessment of integrated climate mitigation and adaptation pathways for South Westphalia. It combines land use, energy, transport, and behavioural analysis to evaluate intervention strategies and support climate neutrality and regional resilience by 2050.
Deliverable D3.6 presents a methodology for transferring climate mitigation pathways from four demonstrator regions to other European regions. It combines a quantitative Four-Tier Weighted Similarity Framework (60+ indicators, Gower distance, scoring all NUTS-3 regions) with a qualitative demonstrator typology approach capturing governance factors. The results are delivered through a PostgreSQL/PostGIS database and Decision Support System for regional planners. It also outlines current limitations and directions for future work.
Deliverable D4.4 introduces the first concept of the KNOWING app, a web-based tool designed to raise climate awareness among the general public. It uses interactive storytelling, quizzes, and regional content to foster climate literacy and promote understanding of mitigation and adaptation measures.
Deliverable D4.5 presents the KNOWING Playful Trainings, a flexible and interactive workshop format designed to enhance climate literacy and empower diverse stakeholder groups through storytelling, systems thinking, and participatory methods.
Deliverable D4.7 presents the final KNOWING Decision Support Service (DSS), a web-based tool helping policymakers find locally appropriate climate mitigation and adaptation pathways across different Climate Impact Contexts. It offers two workflows: “Explore by Region” (matching a region to one of four demonstrators) and “Explore by Climate Goal” (browsing hazards, risks, and measures). The DSS remains a prototype, limited by constrained data availability and the lack of pathway customisation.
Deliverable D5.3 provides a structured overview of the KNOWING project’s dissemination and communication activities, including website development, social media engagement, media outreach, scientific publications, events, and KPIs to measure impact and awareness
Deliverable D5.4 outlines the design and implementation of the KNOWING Knowledge Calendar and Archive – a platform to support, document, and disseminate workshops and training sessions related to climate literacy tools. It focuses on facilitating access to KNOWING communication tools, ensuring long-term sustainability and reuse of project outputs through events, databases, and multi-channel publication strategies.
Deliverable D5.5 outlines the strategy, target groups, market analysis, and implementation roadmap for the commercial and non-commercial uptake of KNOWING’s Key Exploitable Results (KERs), ensuring their long-term impact, transferability, and integration into policy, governance, education, and business contexts.
Deliverable D6.3 summarises the setup, workshops, feedback, and recommendations provided by the External Expert Advisory Board (EEAB) and Stakeholder Reference Group (SRG) to support and strengthen the KNOWING project’s scientific quality, modelling framework, and climate mitigation pathways.
Deliverable D6.8 introduces the KNOWING Innovation Catalogue, outlining the project’s approach to innovation management in its first year. It presents the methodology for assessing the innovation potential of the project’s Key Exploitable Results (KERs), using the European Commission’s Innovation Radar framework, and sets the stage for tracking innovation maturity, market potential, and exploitation pathways in the following project phases.
Deliverable D6.10 outlines how the KNOWING project manages its data. It explains how all project data is made easy to find, access, understand, and reuse by others, while keeping the process simple and responsible. The plan also describes how data is documented, shared through platforms like Zenodo, protected, and reviewed to ensure ethical and secure handling.
This joint NEVERMORE–KNOWING policy brief explains how System Dynamics modelling supports integrated climate mitigation and adaptation policy design by capturing cross-sectoral feedback loops, delays, and accumulation effects across different scenarios. It outlines both projects’ modelling approaches, the data and uncertainty challenges, the role of stakeholder co-creation and validation, and the practical outputs for policymakers.
This NEVERMORE–KNOWING brief presents the projects’ strategic findings on integrated climate mitigation and adaptation, showing how real-world case studies and stakeholder co-creation feed into multi-scale modelling that turns regional visions into actionable pathways with stepwise targets toward 2050. It also highlights the user-oriented tools developed to communicate results (KNOWING’s Decision Support System and Shape Your Future App, and NEVERMORE’s ICT Toolkit), concluding that effective climate policy relies on integrated pathways, supportive regulation, and early, stakeholder-driven action.
