Abstract

Global climate change, as well as economic and social changes, pose new challenges to urban and regional development worldwide. Rapidly changing climate, economic and social trends require adaptation and address several uncertainties and complexities to enable proactive action. Therefore, cities and regions around the world face the challenge of exploring flexible and innovative forms of governance that address specific local vulnerabilities and commit to development of capacity for future change - the resilient city as a planning goal.
