Cities contribute enormously to global greenhouse emissions and are key drivers of climate change. By the same token, people living in urban areas are more exposed to climate change risks. Cities, therefore, need to adopt climate-resilient urban policies to protect both planetary and human health.
Dr. Melanie Lowe, AXA Fellow at RMIT University, will work to identify indicators of city resilience to support efforts to create healthy, climate-resilient cities. Her innovative research project will assist global initiatives to reduce climate change risks to urban infrastructure, industry, and human health, and help to meet the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
