A Workbook on Planning for Urban Resilience in the Face of Disasters: Adapting Experiences from Vietnams Cities to Other Cities: summary, description and annotation
We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "A Workbook on Planning for Urban Resilience in the Face of Disasters: Adapting Experiences from Vietnams Cities to Other Cities" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.
This Workbook offers a step-by-step guide for city officials in proactively planning for natural disasters and climate change impacts. It is based on learning from three cities in Vietnam - Ha Noi, Can Tho, and Dong Hoi that developed Local Resilience Action Plans (LRAPs) containing a set of prioritized actions, related to both infrastructure as well as policy/ regulatory and socioeconomic actions. These LRAPs are based on vulnerability and risks assessments, a gaps analysis drawing on an inventory of planned investments and policy changes, and multi-stakeholder priority setting. The on-the-ground learning from these pilot cities in Vietnam has paved the way for cities in China, Indonesia, and the Philippines to embark on similar processes. This Workbook is a complement to the best-selling Climate Resilient Cities: A Primer on Reducing Vulnerabilities to Disasters (2009).
