Resumen

The ARSINOE project is part of the H2020 programme and aims to provide natural resource managers with adaptation strategies to accommodate the new conditions imposed by the climate, as well as the socio-economic impacts caused by the escalating climate migration crisis. Because climate change is a complex process and is linked to other challenges, such as food security and water scarcity, it is no longer sufficient to use traditional approaches to innovation that focus on only one aspect of the problem. This is why there is a need to integrate a participatory process such as the Living Lab into the project.Living Labs are based on the open and collaborative participation of various stakeholders connected by the same topic. In order to be successful, it is important that the theme of the Living Lab is well defined, in our case the increase in temperature and the main crops in the Canary Islands, to achieve better results when working with people on a specific topic. For the Living Lab, three sessions have been organised, spaced 6 months apart, where project stakeholders have met to discuss the different possible brakes and difficulties they will face when trying to adapt to climate change, specifically in agriculture in the Canary Islands.
