The research project“Strasshof. Klimafit!” focuses on climate change adaptation in the context of (local) land-use planning and landscape planning.
Using the market town of Strasshof an der Nordbahn in Lower Austria as an example, this project demonstrates ways to address heat and heavy rainfall in the community through specific construction measures. In addition, the municipality is supported in implementing further climate change adaptation measures through a) (local) land-use planning and b) landscape planning, as well as exemplary implementations in public spaces, to encourage similar initiatives on private property. Raising awareness and fostering communication between the municipality and its residents are essential in this regard.
To make the experiences and insights gained from Strasshof an der Nordbahn and the project available to other municipalities in Austria at an early stage, webinars on various topics are being held, among other initiatives.
The fifth webinar for the project “Strasshof. Klimafit!”—with the theme “Experiences from the Gemeindestube II”—will be a reflection on the interim results, experiences, and lessons learned regarding climate change adaptation through (local) spatial and landscape planning in the municipality of Strasshof an der Nordbahn. Mayor Ludwig Deltl will provide firsthand insights into the developments and processes surrounding climate change adaptation in the municipality. The project team will also present the initiatives implemented and success stories. The webinar will focus on the following questions: “What was achieved in the second year of the project? What are the keys to its success? And what can other Austrian municipalities learn from the experiences of the municipality of Strasshof an der Nordbahn regarding climate change adaptation?”
We look forward to discussing this with you!
