Silicon Sands & Swahili Shores: Coastal Climate Adaptation In Lusail City And Stone Town, Jana Ahmed Kamel Sep 2025

Silicon Sands & Swahili Shores: Coastal Climate Adaptation In Lusail City And Stone Town, Jana Ahmed Kamel

COP30

With 10% of the world’s population living in low-level coastal areas that are highly prone to erosion, they are in the midst of the climate conversation (McGranahan et al., 2007). Coastal cities in the Middle East, Africa, and South Asia (MEASA) are increasingly exposed to climate-induced risks such as rising sea levels, extreme heat, and climate disasters. This paper examines two very contrasting pathways of adaptation. The first being Lusail City in Qatar, which is Qatar’s second largest city, built with the purpose of becoming a smart sustainability hub incorporating advanced engineering and digital infrastructure. Throughout the paper we slowly …


Adaptation Driven By Crisis: Leveraging Flood Risks And Policy Learning To Transform Netherlands’ Water Management Systems, Aleesha Mae Pasion Fortin Sep 2025

Adaptation Driven By Crisis: Leveraging Flood Risks And Policy Learning To Transform Netherlands’ Water Management Systems, Aleesha Mae Pasion Fortin

COP30

Current scientific research rings the warning bell: almost half of the human population experiences severe water scarcity at least half of each year, with climate-driven changes intensifying droughts, floods, and groundwater depletion. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) determines that water risks will rise rapidly with every degree of global warming (Caretta et al., 2022). The Global Commission on Adaptation argues that adaptation inaction can have astronomical economic and human expenses, while investment in water adaptation can produce high benefit-cost ratios and trillions in global net benefits (Global Commission on Adaptation, 2019). Article 7.1 of the Paris Agreement frames …

Advancing Ace Through South-South Technology Transfer. The Role Of Brics And G77 In Democratizing Climate Empowerment, Hamza Qaisar

COP30

The necessity to prioritise Action for Climate Empowerment (ACE) and capacity building underscores the need for transformative and inclusive strategies to prepare for COP30 under Brazilian presidency. Of particular interest is the contribution of South-South technology cooperation, aptly illustrated by the BRICS and the G77, which together form a formidable alliance of developing nations sharing common developmental challenges and significant potential for innovation. This paper demonstrates how technology transfer and collaborative innovation among these coalitions can act as a strategic lever to operationalise the ACE agenda. Platforms led by BRICS and G77 can empower youth, Indigenous Peoples, and other marginalised …


Mitigation In Action: Carbon Neutrality Aim For Costa Rica's 2050 Aim, Marwan Sherif Sep 2025

Mitigation In Action: Carbon Neutrality Aim For Costa Rica's 2050 Aim, Marwan Sherif

COP30

The global aim of achieving carbon neutrality, reducing waste and limiting global warming through reducing greenhouse gases has been the most crucial aim for humanity to try and achieve. This could be done through mitigation using different methods, whether it is renewable energy adoption, waste-to-energy systems, recent negative emissions technologies, or even through carbon taxing. The aim is to scale up ambition and achieve the Paris agreement regarding the global warming limitation as well as the net-zero emissions target.[4] This paper addresses the problem that Costa Rica has been trying to tackle and how the country has been trying to …
