Publications

The LIFE-CLIMCOOP project aims to respond to the trend and provide an innovative solution to the problem that while significant urban areas in Hungary have been transformed into industrial zones in recent decades, currently no co-operation exists between municipalities and industrial companies, considering climate change adaptation. To adapt to the consequences of climate change and reduce its impacts, it is necessary to define courses of action and tasks in close cooperation between cities and industrial zones.
