dc.description.abstractMunicipal jurisdiction over land use planning and development is an opportunity for implementing climate adaptation actions at the local level. Cities in the global North and South deploy diverse strategies to integrate climate considerations into land use plans, sectoral infrastructure and water strategies with clear land use implications, and different land development and management tools. To boost political salience and feasibility, these efforts often emphasize co-benefits with other developmental objectives. However, the emphasis on “win-win” adaptation solutions may obscure the uneven costs and benefits borne by different groups, provoking the question of: adaptation for whom, by whom, and how? While momentum and funding grows for cities to adapt, researchers need to investigate whether some adaptation efforts are effectively prioritizing the needs of marginalized and vulnerable populations or whether they merely re-package business-as-usual land use planning approaches that have so often left such groups behind. Efforts to reduce climate vulnerability through land use planning tools are indeed embedded in the very institutions and development processes that are currently reproducing uneven risk exposure and socio-economic vulnerability.
