ASCCUE
Adaptation Strategies for Climate Change in the Urban Environment
The principal aims of ASCCUE are:
To develop an improved understanding of the consequences of climate change for urban areas and how these, and the neighbourhoods within them, can be adapted to climate change;
To explore policy options for urban planning in response to climate change, with emphasis on changes in urban form and urban management;
To produce a tool-kit for climate-conscious planning and design at various scales from neighbourhood to the whole city level;
To initiate demonstration projects (to be managed by the stakeholders involved) to make cities and urban neighbourhoods fit for climate change through planning, design and management.
