IMAGINE Adaptation
| IMAGINE Climate Change Adaptation in Urban Areas |

|
IMAGINE Adaptation addresses the urgent need
to evaluate climate change adaptation in urban areas and understand progress
across governance levels. It argues that the current focus on policy progress
can be a useful first step, but it is not indicative of effective adaptation. The project aims to redefine the concept of adaptation success in urban areas to incorporate elements beyond technical definitions. In doing so the project will consider social factors such as equity and justice, along with addressing potential maladaptive outcomes that could arise from certain adaptation strategies. By combining expert and local perspectives and fostering a continuous learning process, the project seeks to develop a more comprehensive and effective framework for evaluating and achieving transformative urban adaptation. |
