A literature-based climate change risk analysis framework in urban, rural and coastal areas

The issue of climate change has entered global political agendas by recognising the urgency of specific actions to contain climate risks.However, in Italy ordinary knowledge frameworks available to public administrations are not always able to adequately support the analysis and classification of the territory on its level of risk against extreme weather events at the different scales of planning.In order to bridge this gap, the first step of this research is the qualitative analysis of local climate change risk conditions taking into account the different characteristics of urban, rural and coastal areas.
