Climate-proof Urban Development

• ‘Climate proofing’ includes methods, instruments and procedures that ensure

that plans, programmes and strategies, as well as the associated investments

towards the current and future impacts of climate change will be made resilient

and adaptable, and that they also aim for the corresponding plans, programmes

and strategies to take into account the aim of climate change mitigation -
