Urban Climate Resilience - Partnership Approaches by URBAN-NEXUS

For this report, we would very much appreciate your help! By filling in the template accompanying this article, you can record information that you consider significant for inclusion in the Synthesis Report. The sources can be research, policy or practice-related and should be concerned with the following key areas:

• Health: for instance heat stress/stroke, increasing risk of certain diseases, pathogens and parasitic infections, social impacts of flooding and drought, acute and chronic effects, increasing vulnerability associated with demographic change, ageing etc.
• Sustainable Land use: e.g. Green & blue infrastructure, coastal realignment, urban drainage, flood mitigation.
• Climate resilient governance: e.g. integrated approaches, differing temporal and spatial scales, policy constraints and conflicts, sectoral divides (silos), innovation, learning and leadership, public awareness and engagement, behaviour change and values etc.
• Risk and uncertainty: e.g. vulnerability/risk assessments, decision-making tools, modelling, projections and probabilities, scenario-planning, data and monitoring needs -  access, reliability.
  

Please return completed templates to Sacha@sniffer.org.uk by 31st January 2012.

The final Synthesis Report will be made available as widely as possible. Your input will increase the quality of the paper, and will open up possibilities for linking up different types of  researches, policies and practices and the persons involved in them.
