Abstract

The chapter discusses the integration of climate change adaptation (CCA) into strategic environmental assessment (SEA) processes, focusing on four Italian cities. It emphasizes the importance of SEA in monitoring and addressing climate change impacts in urban planning. The methodological approach presented involves a three-phase process to integrate CCA into the environmental reports of municipal masterplans (MMPs). The results are showcased through case studies in Sardinia, highlighting significant areas such as hydrogeological instability, urban settlements, and transportation networks. The chapter also provides policy implications and recommendations for spatial planning policies that integrate CCA. The research concludes with prospects for future development and the potential application of the methodology in various European Union member states.
