Adaptação climática e planejamento urbano: o caso de Curitiba

Abstract

This study aims to situate the convergence between climate adaptation and urban planning in municipal public management in the light of the Paris Agreement, using the city of Curitiba as a case study. With this purpose, from the deductive approach method, it is initially addressed the scientific understanding of climate risk, and then the guidelines of the Paris Agreement and the Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) of Brazil to the multilateral regime of the climate are contextualized. Subsequently, the National Policy on Climate Change and the National Adaptation Plan, members of the Brazilian NDC, are presented, with a focus on urban planning. In the end, the treatment given to the thematic nexus by the state of Paraná is analyzed and, particularly, by the Master Plan of the municipality of Curitiba. As a result, it is inferred that urban planning presents formal and material possibilities for transformation and adaptation of the territory in favor of dynamic climate stability.
