Assessing the Climate Change Fitness of Spatial Planning: A Guidance for Planners.

Description:

This guidance for planners on national, regional and local levels gives advice on how to assess the “climate change fitness” of their spatial planning policies and instruments. It provides a practical step-by-step assessment of the climate change fitness of spatial planning, and it recommends useful tools and resources to implement this assessment. Core elements of the guidance have been successfully field-tested and applied in the CLISP project model regions (www.clisp.eu). The guidance document was developed in the project “CLISP - Climate Change Adaptation by Spatial Planning in the Alpine Space” within the framework of the European Territorial Cooperation Alpine Space Programme 2007-2013.
