2 ICLEI s 8 Agendas Sustainable City Resilient City Smart infrastructure Low-carbon City Biodiverse City Green urban economy Resource-efficient City Healthy and happy communities
3 Resilient City A city that supports the development of greater resilience in its institutions, infrastructure, and social and economic life. Resilient cities reduce vulnerability to extreme events and respond creatively to economic, social and environmental change in order to increase their longterm sustainability. Resilient city activities are sensitive to distinctive unique local conditions and origins. Efforts undertaken to prevent crisis or disaster in one area should be designed in such a way as to advance the community s resilience and sustainable development in a number of areas. Resilient cities define a comprehensive urban resilience concept and policy agenda with implications in the fields of urban governance, infrastructure, finance, design, social and economic development, and environmental / resource management Source: Official US Navy Imagery The ability to withstand stress and shocks to physical, social, economic, and ecological systems, and to survive, adapt, and bounce back after a crisis or disaster.

ICLEI ACCCRN Toolkit - with ICLEI South Asia and Southeast Asia Toolkit and a streamlined and replicable urban climate change resilience planning process for local governments tested in three cities with upscaling in approximately 40 cities across India, Bangladesh, Indonesia & Philippines. RAMSES ( ) - with ICLEI Europe By understanding city characteristics and climate change impacts, this European Research project assesses risks and vulnerabilities and the costs and benefits of respective adaptation measures. Resilient Africa Interactive Adaptation Participatory Process Tool ICLEI Africa Interactive online tool developed by African local governments to assist decision-makers to enter into a participatory planning process to improve adaptive capacity. With baseline studies, downscaled climate reports and final resilience handbooks of cities publicly available Adaptation Database and Planning Tool (ADAPT) ICLEI USA Online planning tool that guides local government users through Five Milestones for Climate Adaptation planning to assess vulnerabilities, set resiliency goals, and developing plans that integrate into existing hazard and comprehensive planning efforts. The Local Government Climate Change Adaptation Toolkit - ICLEI Oceania Outlines an adaptive management process providing a set of tools and exercises, used alongside Climate Change Impacts & Risk Management from the Australian Department of the Environment.
