This report opens with a short overview of the critical role for cities in responding to climate change followed by an outline of climate ‘vulnerability’ and ‘resilience’ in an urban context. It identifies areas and knowledge gaps for four key topics: risk and uncertainty; governance; people, and place. For each topic, areas for more detailed consideration in future URBAN-NEXUS activities are suggested.
An Annex of case studies is also available. Examples of case studies and research are presented throughout the report to illustrate relevant sections. Summaries of all of the information received on case studies and partnership initiatives are presented in this annex.
The synthesis report informed discussions at the first URBAN-NEXUS Dialogue cafe held in Glasgow, 29-30 May 2012. A follow-up report from this event is available online here.
