The workshop further enhanced participants' understanding of climate risk assessment, adaptive capacity, and adaptation planning while emphasizing the integration of Gender Equality, Disability, and Social Inclusion (GEDSI) principles to ensure that climate actions are inclusive and responsive to vulnerable sectors.
The workshop recommended strengthening the City's eLCCAP by aligning it with national and international climate commitments, validating climate data and hazard information, addressing existing data gaps, improving access to climate finance, and incorporating emerging climate hazards such as urban heat and saltwater intrusion. These initiatives reinforce Iloilo City's commitment to building a livable, sustainable, climate-resilient, and future-ready highly urbanized city through collaborative and science-based planning.
