Information
Aims, contents and method of the course
The seminar aims to familiarize students with climate change adaptation as a way to deal with current and future climate change related pressures. Focus will be on the human side of climate change and we will work with policy and management related approaches, instruments and concepts in governing adaptation. Throughout the course we will familiarize with key concepts and look into climate adaptation strategies in both in urban and rural contexts. Students are expected to work with the readings provided and we will dive into some of the debates related to the current opportunities and limitations of climate change adaptation in our discussions.
