It analyzes exposure patterns, settlement conditions, and the delivery of basic services, then outlines practical approaches to build resilience across city and community levels. Recommendations extend to integrating risk reduction into urban planning, strengthening institutions, bridging communities and local governments, and opening finance opportunities for pro-poor adaptation.",{"@graph":63,"@context":118},[64,80,101],{"@type":65,"itemListElement":66},"BreadcrumbList",[67,71,74,77],{"item":68,"name":69,"@type":70,"position":9},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",{"item":72,"name":10,"@type":70,"position":73},"https://docshare.wps.com/template/",2,{"item":75,"name":51,"@type":70,"position":76},"https://docshare.wps.com/template/general/",3,{"item":78,"name":59,"@type":70,"position":79},"https://docshare.wps.com/template/climate-change-disaster-risk-and-the-urban-poor-cities-building-resilience-for-a-changing-world/568181/",4,{"url":78,"name":59,"@type":81,"image":82,"author":87,"headline":59,"publisher":90,"fileFormat":93,"inLanguage":57,"description":61,"dateModified":94,"datePublished":95,"encodingFormat":93,"isAccessibleForFree":96,"interactionStatistic":97},"DigitalDocument",{"url":83,"@type":84,"width":85,"height":86},"https://docshare.wps.com/thumbnails/climate-change-disaster-risk-and-the-urban-poor-cities-building-resilience-for-a-changing-world/568181.png","ImageObject",442,249,{"name":88,"@type":89},"asda1da","Person",{"url":68,"name":91,"@type":92},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-10-20","2026-10-13",true,{"@type":98,"interactionType":99,"userInteractionCount":79},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":100},"ViewAction",{"@type":102,"mainEntity":103},"FAQPage",[104,110,114],{"name":105,"@type":106,"acceptedAnswer":107},"What is the focus of this volume on climate change and disaster risk?","Question",{"text":108,"@type":109},"It focuses on how climate change and disaster risk affect urban centers in the developing world, with particular attention to vulnerable populations and urban poverty.","Answer",{"name":111,"@type":106,"acceptedAnswer":112},"How does the volume approach building resilience for the urban poor?",{"text":113,"@type":109},"It proposes actions at city and community levels, including integrating climate change and disaster risk reduction into urban planning, strengthening institutional capacity, and improving coordination with local governments and communities.",{"name":115,"@type":106,"acceptedAnswer":116},"What financing topics are addressed to support pro-poor adaptation?",{"text":117,"@type":109},"It covers costing adaptation and risk reduction, sources of financing for adaptation and risk reduction, and brings related elements together to support pro-poor efforts.","https://schema.org",{"og:url":78,"og:type":120,"og:title":59,"og:site_name":91,"og:description":61},"article",{"robots":122,"canonical":78},"index,follow",{"doc_id":124,"site_id":56},568181,1792448617,{"code":4,"msg":5,"data":127},{"doc_id":124,"user_id":128,"nickname":88,"user_avatar":129,"doc_module":9,"category_id":50,"category_name":51,"doc_title":59,"doc_description":61,"doc_content":130,"file_id":131,"file_url":132,"file_type":133,"file_size":134,"view_count":79,"is_deleted":4,"is_public":9,"is_downloadable":9,"audit_status":9,"page_count":135,"language":136,"language_code":57,"site_id":56,"html_lang":57,"table_of_contents":137,"faqs":138,"seo_title":139,"seo_description":61,"update_tm":140,"read_time":141},3985747861852,"https://ap-avatar.wpscdn.com/davatar_155a257f0dc6eb9ab79c44ca47cae57d","Authorized Pub lic Disclosure Authorized Pub lic Disclosure Authorized  \nCLIMATE CHANGE, DISASTER RISK,  \nAND THE  \nURBAN POOR  \nCities Building Resilience for a Changing World  \nJudy L.
