RAV is accomplished for 14 key cities in India based on various indicators of vulnerability to climate change\u00a0so as\u00a0to strengthen the national policy framework.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0IRADe\u2019s approach and methodological framework include developing an index to assess the vulnerability to climate change of Indian cities, generating baseline data pertaining to urban development in terms of socio-economic and infrastructure aspects in order to recommend adaptation strategies, which can help in formulating efficient urban policies and programmes.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

This includes a review of city development plan of two cities, namely Surat and Haridwar.\u00a0<\/strong>The study\u00a0<\/strong>analyzes the potential threats of climate change and adaptation options in urban planning. Based on this analysis, some policy actions for resilience and climate change adaptation were suggested, that could be implemented by the local urban\/municipal bodies. IRADe also aims to link the work to\u00a0City Development Plans (CDP)<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0Jawaharlal Nehru National Urban Renewal Mission (JnNURM)<\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Surat:\u00a0<\/strong>Surat is an important commercial hub as well as one of the fastest growing cities\u00a0<\/strong>of India. Surat is a highly flood prone city and also faces threats of sea level rise. Around 30 per cent population lives in slum without adequate infrastructure and public services. The study identified the areas of climate vulnerability and adaptations measures to be included into\u00a0city development plans<\/strong>, and capacity of local bodies should be enhanced to ensure climate resilience.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Haridwar:\u00a0<\/strong>The city of Haridwar, besides being a very important place of pilgrimage, is also a major destination for tourism and industries in the state of Uttarakhand. There are considerable number of migrants, tourists and pilgrims and rapid urbanization of the city. Climate change is likely to increase the intensity of the summer monsoon and lead to increased risks of flooding, water logging and landslides. IRADe\u2019s study recommends quantifying\u00a0the potential climate change impacts and adaptation options at the local level, to engage decision-makers from householders to the government, Urban local bodies (ULBs) and major corporations in and generate awareness of climate change.
