Abstract

Adaptation to climate change of cities is currently becoming one of the key points in the planning processes. Adaptation contributes to preservation/improvement of the quality of life and human well-being. It should be an integral part of SMART Cities. Implementation of adaptation measures frequently faces numerous problems, including insufficient awareness of manifestations of climate change or importance of different measures. On an example of the urban district Brno-Novy Liskovec, the paper demonstrates possible approaches that play a supporting role in planning and implementation of adaptation measures. To promote further development of nature-based solutions, the paper presents an economic assessment of existing measures, including an assessment of their benefits. The results indicate that the implementation of a park with a wetland in the densely built-up area has brought high social benefits greatly exceeding the costs.
