Work packages

The Future Cities-project is structured in 4 work packages (WP).

In WP1 a joint assessment check for climate proof cities will be developed taking processes and key components into account. In WP2 action plans for adaptation measures are developed jointly for the involved cities and regions. The action plans are systematically assessed. The feasibility of the assessment check is tested and evaluated leading to an improved check method which is then transferable. To validate the theory and methods in WP3 exemplary measures with small-scale investments are implemented based on the outcomes of the action plans. All partners provide for evaluation to be fed into the assessment check of WP1. In WP4 strategic stakeholders and disseminators are addressed for awareness rising which is important for triggering a more proactive approach widely. The demonstration sites of WP3 are used as concrete and vivid showcases.

For enhanced partnership working an innovative "twinning approach" is planned: 2 partners from different countries review and improve together their action plans.
