The programme takes an outcomes-based approach, derived from both the UN Sustainable Development Goals and Scotland’s National Performance Framework. This cross-cutting approach promotes co-benefits and integrates adaptation into wider Scottish Government policy development and service delivery.

• Outcome 1: Our communities are inclusive, empowered, resilient and safe in response to the changing climate.
• Outcome 2: The people in Scotland who are most vulnerable to climate change are able to adapt and climate justice is embedded in climate change adaptation policy.
• Outcome 3: Our inclusive and sustainable economy is flexible, adaptable and responsive to the changing climate.
• Outcome 4: Our society’s supporting systems are resilient to climate change.
• Outcome 5: Our natural environment is valued, enjoyed, protected and enhanced and has increased resilience to climate change.
• Outcome 6: Our coastal and marine environment is valued, enjoyed, protected and enhanced and has increased resilience to climate change.
