Abstract
During the months between May 2016 and November 2020, AQUATEC led the Europe’s first large-scale innovative project on urban resilience: the RESCCUE Project (RESilience to cope with Climate Change in Urban arEas–a multisectorial approach focusing on water). With a total budget of 8 M€ and co-funded by the EU Horizon 2020 research and innovation program, it involved research sites (Barcelona, Lisbon and Bristol). The main objective of the RESCCUE outcomes is to help urban areas around the world to become more resilient to climate change, considering that most of world population will end up living in urban settlements (United Nations, 2018). RESCCUE provides innovative models and tools to improve cities resilience and helping them to recover quickly from multiple shocks and stresses while maintain continuity of services. This paper presents the project from a generic point of view, goals, methodology and main outputs while providing quick overview of the RESCCUE toolkit for results replicability (https://toolkit.resccue.eu/).
