Come and join us for the launch of A Practical Guide to Climate-resilient Buildings & Communities. This UNEP publication demonstrates how buildings and community spaces can be constructed to increase their resilience to climate change, especially in developing countries where structures are largely self-built. The practical guide provides an overview of the fundamental types of interventions at the building scale, including the use of nature-based solutions. Crucially, it offers construction solutions to adapt to a range of different risks in various climates. For instance, it shows us how to reduce indoor heat in hot and arid climates, or how to mitigate cyclone impacts on buildings in hot and humid climates. The practical guide has been prepared because there is a recognized need to understand good practices for climate-resilient buildings in communities that may suffer from a deficit of professionally trained architects, engineers, and other practitioners. Therefore, this note is written for a broad audience, including those with little experience in the building and construction industries. Importantly, the report also provides us with a highly practical checklist that should be considered by government officers and development practitioners when undertaking a new building project. Speakers: Eva Comba, Report Coordinator, UNEP Jacob S.
