IRADe: Partnerships for Building Climate – Smart Cities in India
The Climate Centre for Cities (C-cube) within the National Institute of Urban Affairs (NIUA), instituted by the Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs (MoHUA), has partnered with Integrated Research & Action for Development (IRADe), for developing climate-smart cities across India. C-cube will work with IRADe’s Centre of Excellence for Urban Development and Climate Change to strengthen capacities of cities in order to understand, implement and monitor the actions needed for addressing climate change impacts in the local context of these cities. IRADe’s Center of Excellence (CoE) with its 12 years of research and expertise, will impart technical knowledge and guidance to C-cube, in making Indian cities become climate-smart. A Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between the C-cube, NIUA and IRADe CoE was signed by Prof. Jyoti Parikh, Executive Director, IRADe and Hitesh Vaidya, Director, NIUA.
