Description

Climate-neutral and resilient cities are essential prerequisites for tackling the growing threat and impacts of climate change. True climate resilience requires systemic, nexus thinking around the key natural resources. The Urban Environment and Climate Change programme is a specialisation within the MSc in Global Urban Change. It equips students with the knowledge and skills to critically evaluate and pursue urban transformation in relation to the universal challenge of sustainable development and the reality of climate change. Next to environmental resilience and climate mitigation, the track will examine critical social, economic and governance dimensions of climate-neutral and resilient cities focusing on topis such as urban society, nature-based solutions and circular economy.
