Project Objectives

By setting up a sustainable regional network, a web-based knowledge management system and a region-spanning roadmap process "Regional Adaptation", dynaklim assists the region to continue to develop itself into a future-based conurbation with a significantly improved ability to innovate and to adapt to climate change. dynaklim is therefore a nationally and internationally significant model for climate change adaptation of metropolitan areas and their hinterlands.
