By mobilizing the notion of intermediary objects, it analyzes how concrete tools—such as data, maps, geographic information systems, or climate services—function as intermediary objects in the co-production of knowledge to integrate adaptation into urban public action. Based on three case studies (Toulouse, Dijon, Tunis), the article highlights the diversity of collaboration configurations, ranging from simple consultation to action research and the co-construction of climate expertise. These intermediary objects contribute to the emergence of hybrid expertise, fostering mutual learning and reciprocal acculturation between scientists and practitioners. The article emphasizes the importance of relational, temporal, and interdisciplinary conditions in placing climate issues on the agenda and embedding climate change adaptation within urban public action.}}
