Abstract

Flood and drought brought by climate change urge world cities to develop towards resiliency. Using green infrastructure and urban landscape for flood resilience is being implemented in, among other places, Denmark. African cities are vulnerable to flood and drought, with their fast urbanization and relatively low infrastructure development. Research collaboration between Danish and African partners can transfer knowledge and support the sustainable development of African cities
