Scoping Workshop to develop an APN Proposal on Capacity Building of Climate Change Adaptation on Urban Planning in the Southeast Asia

The project is aimed to establish summer schools in SEA region at initial steps to enhance the capacity of lecturers and practicioners (planners) in planning schools to incorporate the issues of climate change adaptation for urban planning, and to develop curricula in planning schools for urban climate adaptation. The topic is very relevant with APN science agenda, particularly Climate Change and Variability, Land Use, and Sustainable Development. Since the project is aimed to develop capacity among lecturers and practicioners in adapting to climate change for urban planning, it is relevant with APN scientific capacity development. It is also relevant with one of the APN Policy Agenda which is to strengthen Science-Policy linkages in addressing global change issues.
