This Course is the result of a partnership of UN Habitat, UCCRN and the University of Pisa, University of Naples Federico II and Sorbonne University.
It tackles the complex issue of governing climate resilient cities, assessing in a comparative fashion best practices and solutions.
As co-ideator of the UCCRN Urban Design Climate Workshop (UDCW) series with the UCCRN_edu Coordinator Mattia Leone, Jeffrey Raven (NYIT/RAVEN A+U) hosted at the New York Institute of Technology a UDCW special session focused on the Hunts Point district in The Bronx.
We want to address a huge thanks to our university partners, the conferences participants and all the students who brought their valuable expertise and collective intelligence to our very first UCCRN_edu Intensive Study Programme, hosted by the Gustave Eiffel University Campus in Marne-La-Vallée, Paris.
The second UCCRN_edu Multiplier Event “Bringing science in action: Educational resources to streamline climate-resilient urban governance, planning and Design” took place in New York hosted by the Associated Partner RAVEN A+U at the New York Institute of Technology. The structure and outputs of UCCRN_edu project were presented to maximise the involvement of UCCRN and international partners in key project results, such as the UCCRN_edu MOOC and Handbook.
UCCRN_edu participated to the Research Symposium organized by ICLEI, as a part of ICLEI World Congress 2021-2022, connecting local and regional governments with their peers and strategic partners to co-create actionable knowledge for science-informed decision making to support subnational government in their transition toward sustainability.
The first UCCRN_EDU Multiplier Event will take place in June 1st 2022 in Paris, hosted by Sorbonne University and the UCCRN_EDU Associated Partner UCCRN-Europe.
