City of Bergen and MARE project case study for Nordic Center for Spatial Development
The City of Bergen and the MARE project are featured in the new working paper " Adaptive Urban Planning in Response to a Climate Change" of NORDREGIO, the Nordic Centre for Spatial Development (working paper 2011:10). The paper looks at innovative practices from the Nordic countries regarding sea level rise and precipitation. The conclusions of the meeting highlight the importance and complexity of collaboration across sectors, municipalities, regions and states. As is the case in Bergen, the argument is made for strong collaboration among neighboring municipalities by initiating common platforms for climate change adaptation, since what happens in one municipality would most likely affect the other.
