BREsilient - climate-resilient future city Bremen | Umweltbundesamt

Together with the local people, concepts and measures for dealing with the consequences of climate change are being developed in four model areas:
- Assess flood risk in the recreational, sports and leisure area Pauliner Marsch with local residents and interest groups and develop measures for risk prevention
- Assess heavy rainfall at Blomedal Castle in Bremen-Nord and develop a prevention concept together with the fire brigade and administration
- Analyze climate impacts for the maritime economy and logistics and discuss possible adaptation measures in a future workshop with industry representatives
- Carry out cost-benefit analysis for adaptation measures

The Climate Adaptation Strategy for Bremen and Bremerhaven names numerous key measures for climate protection for people, the environment, buildings and infrastructure. For the implementation in the coming years, financial resources of the country and its two municipalities will be necessary. To compare the benefits of each implementation option, the process is accompanied by scientific cost-benefit analyzes and a regional economic study.

For the follow-up of the forms of participation used and for the identification of success factors in the design of participation processes / real laboratories for climate adaptation, a formative evaluation is carried out. The purpose of the evaluation is to determine to what extent the participation processes will lead to resilience-enhancing climate adaptation decisions and measures. In this way, a further basis for the decision is elaborated, which shows which climate adaptation measures can be successfully put into a planned implementation phase after the end of the three-year BREsilient project.
