A laboratory for adaptation of urban areas to climate change: flooding resilience and climate-sensitive waterfronts

Abstract

New architectural approaches for adapting cities to climate change demand a comprehensive and integrated perspective. One of the complementary methods of educating students involves creating laboratories dedicated to specific topics, implemented within a network of collaborating universities. The Laboratory for Adaptation of Urban Areas to Climate Change, focused on flooding resilience and climate-sensitive waterfronts as vital topics, brought together a multidisciplinary expert group in architecture, urban planning, spatial planning, sociology, journalism, and others. Students and young researchers working together were encouraged to delve into a more holistic approach to the issue of climate-sensitive waterfronts, yielding numerous benefits compared to what is typically offered within the framework of separate subjects delivered within a standard curriculum. Doctoral candidates, who are both third-degree students and researchers, could experiment with applying their thesis concepts by collaborating with students in data-driven and creative research-by-design investigations.
