AELCLIC_PATHFINDER
AELCLIC_PATHFINDER_in a Nutshell
NEED: Concerning Climate Change adaptation, there is a need to align agendas and visions of the
different types of stakeholders involved in the management and transformation of the landscape, both in rural and urban areas as well as in transitional spaces.
GOAL: The AELCLIC-PATHFINDER would define and test MODELS for the configuration of regional/local
(bottom-up) networks with the social, financial, administrative and technical capacity to co -define Landscape Adaptation Plans to Climate Change (LACAPs).
OUTCOME & METHOD: The final outcome of the AELCLIC-PATHFINDER would be a set of
regional/local Consortia in a strategically selected set of 16 European Pilot Landscapes that have been chosen in order to cover the climatic, socio-economic, cultural and biogeographical diversity of Europe and in order to produce highly transferable and scalable models.
USERS: The final users of the models and results will be firstly the regional/local communities where the
Consortia will been defined as a result of the AELCLIC-PATHFINDER.

AELCLIC_PATHFINDER projectTornio River_Pilot Landscape_WORKSHOP1 (24.5.2019)
The Tornio River Valley has been selected as one of the 16 European landscapes of the AELCLIC -Pathfinder project (Adaptation of European Landscapes to Climate Change) funded by EIT_Climate-KIC (EU).
WHY?: This decision was based on its location in the highly sensitive Boreal area, on its exceptional environmental and cultural va lues, on its transnational
character and on the deep connection between local economy and natural landscape .
WHAT?: The AELCLIC-Pathfinder will create a local network (Consortium) for the future development of a Landscape Adaptation Plan to Cli mate Change
(LACAP). This network or Consortium will be integrated by local authorities, civil organizations, economic actors (e.g. compa nies working with tourism,
f ishing, forestry, etc.) and academic/scientif ic institutions.
FINAL OUTCOME?: By the end of the AELCLIC_pathfinder project the Tornio River Valley will have:
• A diagnosis of Climate Change impacts in the local economy, ways of l iving, environment, cultural heritage and levels of wellbeing. This diagnosis will be
based in the CO-IDENTIFICATION of impacts by all the stakeholders on the base of existing national or regional reports and studies.
• A CO-DEFINED document with the GOALS, STRUCTURE and MAIN CONTENTS that a future Landscape Adaptation Plan to Climate Change should have for
the Tornio River Valley. This document will be agreed collectively by all the stakeholders.
• A Joint LETTER of COMMITMENT in which all the members of the Local Network (Consortium) will express their will ingness to advance in the future
preparation of a local Landscape Adaptation Plan to Climate Change.
HOW?: The Tornio River Valley is included in the NORTHERN -EUROPE area of the AELCLIC-pathfinder. This area is coordinated by the Aalto University in
collaboration with the Landscape Observatory of Finland. The participation of local stakeholders will not imply any economic duty. Basically they will be
invited to participate in the organization of the following 3 workshops and to disseminate the project through their own chan nels.
• WORKSHOP 1: (1 day, March-April 2019): After conforming the local network, the stakeholders will agree a work plan for the next sub-phases and
workshops
• WORKSHOP 2: (1 day, May-June 2019): Co-Identif ication by the local Consortium (stakeholders) of the potential impacts of Climate Change in their ways
of l iving, economic activit ies, environmental and cultural assets
• WORKSHOP 3: (1 day, July-September): Co-Definition of goals, agendas, contents and co-identif ication of potential economic resources for the future
development of a LACAP (after the AELCLIC-pathfinder is f inished)

TORNIO CITY STRATEGY 2017-2021
The Tornio River Valley has been selected as one of the 16 European landscapes of the AELCLIC -Pathfinder project (Adaptation of European Landscapes to Climate Change) funded by EIT_Climate-KIC (EU).
The Pilot will include the inhabited areas of the municipalities of Tornio (FI) and Haaparanta (SE). The municipalities have already confirmed their involvement. We need to investigate how the AELCLIC project would relate or could create synergies with other planning documents and visions.
● northern river valley between Finland and Sweden● large area with few residents● both urban and agricultural/forestry and cultural components● two cities and municipalities Tornio (FI) and Haaparanta (SE)● boundaries not yet demarcated

tourists.
Our joint city center is growing on the national boundary of Finland and Sweden.
