Increasing Funding for Climate Change Adaptation: Implications for Transport
This seminar will explore if and in what ways the pledged increase in funding for adaptation coming out of COP26 may lead to a change in how transport systems are used, designed and planned: Will we see more adaptable and resilient transport infrastructures that also benefit those hit the hardest? Will this money help shift towards more equitable transport systems, or will it emphasise existing injustices? What does this mean in terms of the way different areas of the world deal with the changing climate in the short and medium term?
