  2. TU09 Action deliverables (minimum): Action started in 2009 and ends October 2013 • A network of European researchers equipped to address the challenge of integrated assessment in urban areas (Year 4). • Review and comparison of case studies of cities (Year 1-2) • WG led topic reviews(Year 2-3)- see MoU: submit in next 6 months some outputs • Journal papers arising from Short Term Scientific Missions and reviews (Years 2-4+)- submit in the 6-12 months We suggested to develop the City Cookbook

  3. Moving towards a “City Cookbook” • Identify key contents of the cookbook • Identify key case studies • Plan necessary collaborations • Map out timeframe and assign responsibilities • Synthesise expert knowledge in the network

  4. Context of WGs Climate adaptation …. Cross scale tensions Cookbook STSM … London Bilbao Praha

  5. TU0902- Working Groups • WG1: Integrated assessment methods and technologies • WG2: Adaptation, mitigation and climate change feedbacks in cities • WG3: Resource flows and urban ecosystem services in cities • WG4: Strategic urban planning and governance

  6. MoU- WG 2- Adaptation, mitigation and climate change feedbacks in cities Sub-task 1- Build upon existing reviews to develop a comprehensive list of adaptation and mitigation options available to urban policy makers; Sub-task 2- ...qualitative descriptions of relevant processes and interactions in the urban environment, infrastructure, economy and inhabitants; Sub-task 3- …. Sub-task 6 NOTE: Sub-tasks can change, but we need to agree who is doing what- when Individual WG 2 sub-tasks- http://iaforcities.com/wg2-meetings-and-reports/tasks-and-activities/ Status and linkages of WG 2- sub-tasks- http://iaforcities.com/wg2-meetings-and-reports/administration/

  7. Context of individuals-ALL Climate adaptation …. Cross scale tensions STSM Cookbook … London Bilbao Praha

  8. Case study city matrix and your expertise • Your name; Location (template) • Sectors and expertise you have • Do we have your data?

  9. Next steps for case studies and expertise matrix • All provide (i) individual expertise (ii) case study for a city of your choice • WG Vice Chairs chase WG members (email; meetings etc.) • Database needs organising and put on website-volunteers? • Maybe we have another case study/expertise meeting (in addition to MC)?

  10. Summary • WG Chair link work (sub-tasks) with MoU-maybe follow example from WG2 for reporting • WG Chair responsible to populate website • WG Chair set individual or combined WG meeting WG Vice chair- gather case study/expertise (volunteers) • All- Suggest STSM, support Action and your WG • All- Think about next MC meeting (who can host it) • ALL-OUTPUT – Cookbook- Case studies, expertise, WG Sub-tasks LAST AND FARMOST-THANK YOU
