Dear All,

TERI recently organised a national conference on 'Climate Resilient Coastal Cities' with an objective of sharing the outcomes and experiences from its year-long study titled 'Climate Resilient Infrastructure Services'. The study assessed the impact of sea level rise on the infrastructure and assets in the Indian cities of Panaji and Visakhapatnam. The study was supported by USAID as part of its Climate Resilient Infrastructure Services (CRIS) Program under the larger Climate Change Resilient Development (CCRD) Project. The conference focused on generating awareness and initiating dialogue on climate change issues and climate resilience planning of coastal cities in developing countries. We are very pleased to share the outcomes of the study with all of you.

The study reports: Case Study Briefs and the Working Paper are attached with this post and can also be accessed here:

The study team will also be publishing a policy brief soon. We hope to continuously engage with our peer organisations and practitioners, city governments, community of researchers and academicians to collectively achieve the goal of climate resilient cities.

Best Regards,
