Resumen

Spatial planning (SP) plays a pivotal role in shaping urban and rural areas, encompassing interventions such as development, conservation, and spatial configuration, all of which significantly influence climate change adaptation (CCA) efforts. The incorporation of CCA policies within municipal SP has gained increasing importance in addressing the challenges posed by climate change impacts. This study aims to examine the interplay between CCA policies and municipal SP in Turkey. It proposes an assessment of selected cities representing diverse climate regions within Turkey at the local scale. The primary objectives encompass evaluating the current state of the CCA-SP relationship through a causal-comparative approach, considering assessment criteria derived from a comprehensive literature review, and formulating region-specific policies. Noteworthy advancements in local-level climate change mitigation policies are underscored, while concurrently identifying significant gaps in climate change adaptation, particularly concerning the built/green environment and governance/participation. The findings will enhance the integration of CCA policies into forthcoming spatial planning endeavors within Turkey.

 

Keywords: climate change adaptation (CCA), spatial planning (SP), local spatial planning (L-SP), Turkey.
