In an endeavor to bring the knowledge and experience generated through the ACCCRN initiative, and explore synergies with similar other initiatives, TERI in association with Rockefeller Foundation today organized an International Workshop on “Resilient Cities- Experiences from ACCCRN in Asia and Beyond” under the aegis of its annual flagship event, Delhi Sustainable Development Summit (DSDS) 2013. Setting the theme, Dr. R.K.Pachauri, Director General, TERI said “The impacts of climate change are becoming more apparent, the heat waves are on increase and there is no denying the fact that cities would be more vulnerable in the future. The need of the hour is to deal with climate change effectively. We need to have a dialogue and build proper communication channels to shed light on these issues, and create better urban climate resilience, develop infrastructure and human capability to deal with these issues.
