Abstract

Comprises one of the first studies on community participation in climate change adaptation in the cities and urbanised regions of Europe. Explores the connection between, on the one hand, the challenge that climate change poses to our urban environments and their communities, and, on the other, involving communities in developing and implementing adaptation plans.
