Abstract
The article sheds light on a number of architectural and urban planning principles of the WSUD (Water Sensitive Urban Design) strategy and the Sponge City concept as the effective means of fighting the effects of global climate change. The global practice of flood control in recent years has led to the emergence of a range of urban strategies that anticipate future flood risks and allow them to be managed more effectively in the context of urban transformation and climate change. Water Sensitive Urban Design (WSUD) is a new paradigm of urban development based on interdisciplinary collaboration between experts in water management, architecture, engineering, urban planning and landscape design, aimed at minimizing the hydrological impact of urban development on the environment. This approach considers all components of the urban water cycle and combines the functionality of water resources management with the principles of urban design. The analysis of successful world practice of implementation of city strategies of struggle against consequences of global climate change is carried out and the potential for its realization in Ukraine is revealed.
