Overheated and underprepared — Europeans’ experience of living with climate change

A joint report by the European Environment Agency (EEA) and the European Foundation for the Improvement of Living and Working Conditions (Eurofound) explores Europeans’ experience of climate-related impacts, concern about future impacts, and resilience actions taken by households and seen in the local area. It highlights how climate resilience varies across regions and socio-economic groups, including populations that are particularly vulnerable. These insights can support EU policy initiatives such as the European Preparedness Union Strategy and the forthcoming European Climate Resilience and Risk Management Integrated Framework. The report draws on data collected from the 2025 Eurofound Living and Working in the EU e-survey, which included over 27,000 respondents across EU-27 countries.

A link to the report will be made available before the report launch event.
