Climate change knows no borders: its international repercussions can be felt even in our own backyard. This project studies transnational climate risks and impacts in Quebec in the food processing and battery industries.
The project aims to develop a communication process that addresses tensions in the dialogue and the paradoxes inherent to the climate crisis and to apply it to the challenges associated with water management.
This project aims to improve the understanding of the Montréal public transit system’s vulnerability and exposure to extreme rainfall. It will also help identify adaptation solutions and tools supporting collaborative infrastructure governance.
This project aims to study the benefits of a prospective, collaborative approach within two supramunicipal bodies in Quebec that are engaged in a collective adaptation process, to see if it can promote broad-based engagement in a more transformational, systemic kind of adaptation.
This project is a real-life case study on participatory governance being used in municipal settings to address climate change challenges at a regional scale. The goal is to have public, community and private organizations and residents coordinate their adaptation efforts.
The aim of this project is to fill a knowledge gap on the climate leadership of Quebec companies in climate change adaptation.
This project will contribute to advance methods and metrics for adaptation monitoring and evaluation in critical infrastructure sectors.
This case study will generate hard data on the structure and impact of a continuing education initiative for municipal elected officials. The data will be used directly to improve the UMQ’s training offering, as well as other educational initiatives on adaptation for elected officials and municipal employees.
The aim of this project is to study the knowledge transfer methods implemented by Agriclimat and to analyze their results. The strategies will be used to improve the knowledge transfer on climate change adaptation performed by other organizations in Quebec.
The Climate Equity Lab’s aim is to assemble a wide range of knowledge and experience in order to co-produce an equity toolkit for climate change adaptation to raise awareness and offer support for conceptualizing and implementing fair adaptation solutions.
