LIFE Urban Klima 2050: Systemic implementation of the CC action in the Basque Country for increased urban resilience as full territory enabler
The main objective of LIFE-IP URBAN KLIMA 2050 is to contribute to the full implementation of the KLIMA Strategy 2050 in the Basque Country in Spain, whose fulfilment is based on the execution of 9 goals and 24 lines of intervention. The project will:
- help finalise the current Action Plan (2015-2020) and support the definition of the next Action Plans (2021-2025 and 2026-2030) of the Klima 2050 Strategy;
- promote the integration of the KLIMA 2050 Strategy into territorial and sectoral planning activities and analyse the effects of its integration;
- mainstream climate change policy into other sectoral policies (i.e. health, water and energy);
- implement a series of actions (best practice, demonstration and pilot) in three pilot areas (urban/peri-urban, river basin, and coastal) aimed ata) exploring the synergies between urban and rural measures (e.g. nature-based solutions, green infrastructure, sustainablemobility and renewable energies integration),b) taking full advantage of the river basin approach for the continuity of solutions (e.g. river flood mitigation and water supply) analysing the specificities of coastal environments (coastal urban settlements, harbours and natural environments);
- fine-tune citizen and administration capacities (structure, knowledge, tools, networks, funding access, etc.) required to implement the 24 lines of intervention of the KLIMA 2050 Strategy;
- improve governance in the climate change field, at all administrative scales; and
- multiply the impacts of the project's solutions and mobilise a wider uptake (raising awareness, training and dissemination).
