Climate adaptation in risk and vulnerability analyzes (ROS) for Oslo Municipality

The Climate Agency in Oslo Municipality experienced that the current use of risk and vulnerability analyzes (ROS) in the planning process did not capture the consequences of natural events and climate change in good enough. This was the starting point for them asking Western Norway Research Institute and Western Norway University of Applied Sciences to prepare a report with input for better practice in the area.

The report outlines opportunities, barriers and challenges in the work of integrating oversight of climate change into the ROS work. The researchers have given advice on how to avoid or work with the barriers and utilize the possibilities, especially in light of the new state planning guideline for climate adaptation.
