Result description
The RESCCUE RAF is a framework that guides you to undertake a structured urban resilience assessment to climate change. It considers four dimensions in the city, namely organisational integrating top-down governance relations and urban population involvement; spatial referring to urban space and environment; functional regarding resilience of strategic services and physical that looks at resilience of infrastructures.
The framework is objective-driven being the objectives identified for each dimension. It enables you to assess the development level of city resilience, considering the contribution of strategic services and their inter-dependencies to the city resilience. Services included are water supply, wastewater, stormwater and waste management, electrical energy distribution and mobility. The RAF allows a step-wise process going into a gradual depth assessment, depending on the resilience maturity of a city.
The RAF allows alignment with the resilience path and integration of the work already in place in the cities and services. It also supports the service providers to assess the respective development level of the service resilience. The RAF allows you to identify what are the main strengths and weaknesses in the city and services; to support decisions on the measures needed to enhance resilience and to develop strategies. Its main purposes are to support strategic decision-making, development of resilience action plans, communication among different stakeholders and assessment of resilience progress.
