Global Water Scarcity and Urban Resilience: Nature-Based Solutions for Cities under Climate Change
provides a comprehensive and timely exploration of how cities around the world can confront the escalating challenge of water insecurity.
As climate change, rapid urbanization, and aging infrastructure converge, urban areas across Africa, Asia, Latin America, and beyond face mounting risks of droughts, floods, and water contamination, threatening human well-being and sustainable development.
Bringing together leading experts from multiple regions and disciplines, this book presents actionable strategies for building resilience through engineering innovation, policy reform, and nature-based infrastructure.
It features comparative case studies, planning tools, and global best practices that illustrate how cities—from Beira and Cape Town to São Paulo, Chennai, and Los Angeles, are reimagining water systems to thrive under climate stress.
The book is a necessary guide for academics, practitioners, and decision-makers committed to advancing sustainable and equitable urban water futures.
