Dear Sir or Madam,
I am writing to invite you to contribute to the PROTECCT research project
(Protection against Climate-Related Social Risks in Europe: A Comparative
Perspective), funded by the French National Research Agency (ANR) and
primarily based at Sciences Po.
The project examines how European countries protect populations against the
social risks associated with climate-related hazards, including heatwaves,
floods, storms, droughts, and wildfires. Within this framework, we are
focusing in particular on the transport sector and on the mechanisms put in
place to ensure that transport infrastructure and services can withstand,
adapt to, and respond to climate-related risks.
We are currently collecting information through an expert questionnaire
focusing on:
* the governance of climate adaptation in the transport sector, including
adaptation planning, institutional arrangements, infrastructure resilience,
and the implementation of adaptation measures;
* the continuity, accessibility, and prioritisation of transport services
during climate-related disruptions and emergencies;
* measures aimed at maintaining mobility for affected populations and
territories, including service continuity obligations, emergency transport
arrangements, and mechanisms for priority access.
Throughout the questionnaire, “transport” refers both to transport
infrastructure (e.g. roads, railways, ports, and urban transport systems)
and to the organisation, operation, and management of transport services.
The questionnaire focuses on measures currently in force, even if they were
adopted some time ago, as well as temporary or ad hoc interventions
implemented between 2020 and 2025, such as emergency funds, special decrees,
or official alerts.
The questionnaire is relatively detailed and may take some time to complete.
However, any contribution, including a partial response, would be very
valuable to our comparative analysis. You do not need to answer every
question if some fall outside your area of expertise.
You can complete the questionnaire online here:

For convenience, we are also attaching a Word version of the questionnaire.

You are welcome to use whichever format you prefer. In either case, you may
also complete the questionnaire together with colleagues, forward it to
other relevant experts or departments, or divide the questions among several
contributors according to their respective areas of expertise.
If you are not the most appropriate person to answer the questionnaire, we
would therefore be very grateful if you could forward this invitation to a
relevant colleague or department.

Thank you very much for your time and consideration. Please do not hesitate
to contact me if you have any questions about the questionnaire or the
project.
Kind regards,
