1st Asia Level Forum on Urban Resilience
and Adaptation
11 - 13 February 2015 | Bangkok, Thailand
6 Global Forum on Urban Resilience and
Adaptation
8 - 10 June 2015 | Bonn, Germany
Research and empirical evidence have
established Asia, and in particular its cities, as
one of global regions most vulnerable to the
impacts of climate change due to rapid and
often unplanned urbanisation. Resilient Cities
Asia will offer Asian cities a variety of innovative
solutions that build resilience to such threats.
Contact [email protected] for more
information.
The congress will focus on driving forward
implementation while encouraging city-regional
partnerships and strong multi-level governance
for smart, adaptive urban areas. Contact
[email protected] to discuss partnership
opportunities for congress sessions, forums, coevents, and exhibiting.
Call for contributions opens in September 2014!

The Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) is responsible for
formulating the principles and strategies of German development policy. These then form the
basis of the cooperation projects and programs developed together with partner countries and
international organizations. Sustainable urban development is recognized as a key element in
achieving international climate and development goals and therefore constitutes a significant field
of German development policy.
ICLEI and the Durban Adaptation Charter invite cities attending Resilient Cities 2014 to register
for the carbonn Cities Climate Registry (cCCR) to demonstrate their power and potential to reduce
climate risks and move towards a climate-resilient and low-emissions based development. Come
visit us at our booth to find out more about the cCCR and the Durban Adaptation Charter!
The Climate and Development Knowledge Network (CDKN) supports decision-makers in developing
countries in designing and delivering climate compatible development. It does this by combining
research, advisory services and knowledge-sharing in support of locally owned and managed policy
processes.
The project “Sustainable City“ will be presented at Ecomondo on 5 - 8 November 2014 in Rimini,
Italy. The key themes of the project are smart home and building, area safety and control, road
network and traffic control, new electric hybrid vehicles, smart metering and smart grid, public
transport, sensors and actuators, systems for cutting energy consumption, new materials and
solutions for sustainable building, intelligent models of waste collection treatment and recycling.
The European Investment Bank is the bank of the European Union. As the largest multilateral
borrower and lender, the EIB has provided finance and expertise for sound and sustainable
investment projects since 1958. The Bank is owned by the 28 EU Member States and the projects
it supports help to implement EU policy objectives. Support to low-carbon and climate-resilient
growth globally is a key priority for the EIB.
Think and plan geographically. As the market leader in geographic information systems (GIS),
Esri technology is used in over 350,000 organizations worldwide. Use GIS to collect, manage, and
analyze geographic information, helping you solve problems and make better decisions.
The International Society of City and Regional Planners (ISOCARP) is a global association of
experienced professional planners. ISOCARP encourages the exchange of professional knowledge
between planners, promotes the planning profession, stimulates and improves planning research
and education and enhances public awareness and understanding of major planning issues.
The association‘s main event is the annual World Congress. Please visit: www.isocarp.org and
2014.isocarp.org
“From Thoughts to Action by closely linking practice, science, policy and decision making in the
search for sustainable solutions.“ Through its various activities GRF Davos aims at serving as a
centre of knowledge and know-how exchange for the application of contemporary risk management
strategies, tools and practical solutions. Thus, GRF Davos aims at reducing vulnerability for all types
of risks and disasters to protect life, property, environment, critical infrastructure and all means of
business for the worldwide community on a sustainable basis.
The ICLEI World Congress 2015 will be proudly hosted by Seoul Metropolitan Government from
8 – 12 April 2015. ICLEI’s premier triennial event will empower city leaders from around the world
with sustainable urban solutions. Top performing ICLEI Members and other local governments
will join international agencies, national governments, donors, and other partners in Seoul for
knowledge-sharing, capacity building, training sessions and networking opportunities.
