Climate-adapted urban development

In the context of the climate-adapted urban development project, an overview of the basic principles, possible measures and procedures for coping with the increasing heat load in cities and  major regions develops. will be developed. The addressees are Swiss cities and agglomerations that deal with adaptation to climate change and measures against heat islands.

On 28 November 2016, the first workshop took place.

On 29 March 2017, a second workshop took place.

Project CLISP: Climate Change Adaptation by Spatial Planning in the Alpine Space

The EU-project CLISP (2008-2011) dealt with the challenges of climate change for spatial planning in the Alpine region and developed initial approaches for "climate-safe" spatial development. The Federal Office for Spatial Development developed a guideline for the evaluation of the “climate-change fitness” of planning instruments, in which the Alpine-wide experience from 10 model regions was incorporated.
