CEN/WS ARCH - City Resilience Development – Framework and guidance for implementation in historic areas
The aim of the workshop is to develop a management framework that helps, for example, heritage managers, public administrators, and other actors in the field of climate change adaptation planning (CCA) and disaster risk management (DRM) and heritage management: -to go beyond the system definition of resilience and acknowledge the need for socially just resilience building -to understand which steps are necessary to develop a combined DRM/CCA action plan that takes needs and opportunities of historic areas into account when building resilience -to provide guidance on how to operationalize the different steps of the DRM/CCA management framework -to provide guidance on which stakeholders to involve in each step of the management process and -to provide a conceptual structure for different tools and methods as well as for indicating where and how these can support end-users in a DRM/CCA framework.

General Information
The document specifies a resilience-building framework for historic areas within cities and communities that defines and combines disaster risk management (DRM) and climate change adaptation (CCA) activities in an integrated approach. The framework is applicable for historic areas that face natural and climate change-induced hazards. The framework includes a:
– characterisation of historic areas and their exposure to natural and climate change-induced hazards,
– set of requirements and recommendations on how historic areas can become more resilient,
– step-by-step process to manage disasters, and to perform and monitor resilience-building activities.
This document is intended to be used by decision makers and technical staff at the city/community and historic area levels, as well as by councillors working on risk and vulnerability assessment, climate change adaptation and resilience enhancement. Other stakeholders who may wish to use the document include disaster risk managers, heritage managers, public administrators, sustainability and resilience officers, critical infrastructure managers, service providers, emergency service providers, civil society associations, non-governmental organisations, academic and research institutions, as well as consultancies.
