RAMSES webinars
Training webinar 1
"Understanding Urban Heat Effects and the Core Dimensions of Resilient Systems for improved Urban Quality"
22nd June 2017 from 11:00-12:00 (CET)
The 1st Training Webinar of the European research project RAMSES on "Understanding Urban Heat Effects and the Core Dimensions of Resilient Systems for improved Urban Quality" will take place on 22nd June 2017 from 11:00-12:00 (CET).
The RAMSES project has produced a large number of resources that can be offered to cities and adaptation practitioners in a co-creative process between cities and researchers. This final training phase of the project is the last opportunity to get acquainted with the project's key findings and to interact directly with the experts. The webinar "Understanding Urban Heat Effects and the Core Dimensions of Resilient Systems for improved Urban Quality" is the first of three such webinars and we will have experts from VITO and NTNU presenting their work on Urban Heat Island and the Core Dimensions of Resilient Systems.

3rd RAMSES Webinar"Understanding vulnerabilities, assessing economic gains and unlocking the transformative potential of climate adaptation in cities" Climate adaptation and resilience building are already a priority in many cities. While there is no doubt about the urgency of adapting to climate change, knowledge and resources are still needed to support its implementation. During the webinar Understanding vulnerabilities, assessing economic gains and unlocking the transformative potential of climate adaptation in cities we shared the research presented during the 3rd RAMSES Stakeholder Dialogue, which took place on the 4th October in Rome and the input resulting from the discussions during the day. Project researchers presented their work on crucial adaptation topics: • Understanding climatic and socio-economic risks and vulnerabilities in cities• Assessing the costs and the benefits of climate change and adaptation• Exploiting the transformative potential of climate adaptation and designing pathways to resilience
3rd RAMSES Stakeholder Dialogue"Understanding vulnerabilities, assessing economic gains and unlocking the transformative potential of climate adaptation in cities" The 3rd Stakeholder Dialogue explored some of the project’s core research topics such as:
The report of the 3rd RAMSES Stakeholder Dialogue is currently under preparation and will be shared soon.
