Climate Adaptation and Capacity Building in Three Mid-sized Cities

The research objectives of this project include:

• Assess the extent of climate adaptation planning ongoing in cities in the SCIPP region
• Understand how community groups experience climate change impacts, and the extent that these experiences are captured in city adaptation planning efforts
• Develop ways to improve climate adaptation planning

This project will assess what climate adaptation activities are already happening and how communities are integrated in these planning activities (or how they could be). We will work with community partners to create resources for community planning and monitoring of federal resources and opportunities and engage with communities to co-produce knowledge on climate risk and vulnerability.

Two reports have been completed and can be viewed below:
