2024 CCICED AGM Open Forum – “Digitalization – Greening for Climate Adaptation and Sustainability of Cities”

The open forum was organized as two independent sessions, on Climate Adaptation and on Digitization respectively. This report summarizes the session on Climate Adaptation, structured around the presentation of the AGM version of the Special Policy Study (SPS) Green Development and Climate Adaptation for Urban and Rural areas — Climate Adaptation in a Changing World. The SPS report was presented and placed in a broader perspective. The report proposes a framework to assess adaptation to climate change in the context of resilience.
