In summary, the Services are for the preparation of a new Climate Change Sectoral Adaptation Plan for Built and Archaeological Heritage (hereafter referred to as SAP II), in line with the government’s National Adaptation Framework (2024) and Sectoral Planning Guidelines for Climate Change Adaptation (2024). For the purposes of this tender, built and archaeological heritage includes: - Archaeological monuments and sites; - Historic settlements and infrastructure; - Historic buildings and other structures; - Cultural landscapes; - Contents and collections; - Underwater Cultural Heritage. SAP II should set a long-term strategic vision for the built and archaeological heritage sector and include a climate strategy and action plan aimed at building adaptive capacity in the sector; reducing its vulnerability to climate change and identifying cross-sectoral opportunities. SAP II should also identity appropriate opportunities for the sector to contribute to climate change mitigation.
