This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. – The most efficient way to address increasing climate impacts in cities is to mainstream climate adaptation into planning policies and tools. Successful mainstreaming means that climate adaptation will be considered by ‘default’, because it is built into the system, says Christine Wamsler, Professor at LUCSUS, and au

Innovation and successful higher education institutions go hand in hand. It would be difficult to name a well-renowned university that is not also strong on innovation issues. At Lund University, we have been working on innovation for a long time and in a variety of ways, not least in terms of research results that in turn have resulted in start-up companies. Many of these companies have also bene

Adapting cities is key for increasing the resilience of citizens, communities, organisations and wider systems to deal with the effects of climate change. For more than 20 years Professor Christine Wamsler has collaborated with national authorities, municipalities and citizens to implement sustainable climate change adaptation, disaster risk reduction, and long-term sustainability projects to supp

A unique long-term study, in which samples were collected from the same population of blue tits over a 30-year period, shows that rising spring temperatures have doubled the incidence of avian malaria in southern Sweden. Researchers from Lund University in Sweden have collected samples every year from hundreds of blue tits in a single population at a local breeding area outside Lund. This has prov

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Arctic climate change research relies on field measurements and samples that are too scarce, and patchy at best. The researchers in the BECC action group looked at thousands of scientific studies, and found that around 30% of cited studies were clustered around only two research stations in the vast Arctic region.

How can urban citizens be engaged and active in the energy transition? A new article explores this by applying the methodology called ‘Walking with Energy’, which seeks to (re)connect citizens with where their energy is coming from. Energy citizenship has emerged as a concept which attempts to capture the new role envisaged for urban citizens as engaged and active in the energy transition. However

Researchers at IIIEE have been running the capacity development program Innovation in Governance for Urban Nature-Based Solutions for five consecutive years. The SI-funded program has come to an end, but its legacy thrives in various ways.

In a new article Madeleine Wahlund and Jenny Palm have reviewed earlier research on citizen participation and energy citizenship. The concepts are tightly connected to the debate on energy transition, and the need for a decentralized energy system, based on renewable energy and increased local energy ownership. The two concepts exist in parallel and are sometimes used as synonyms and sometimes wit

A new study led by Lund University in Sweden shows that cities negatively affect the diversity of birds. There are significantly fewer bird species in urban forests compared with forests in the countryside - even if the forest areas are of the same quality. The researchers examined 459 natural woodlands located in or near 32 cities in southern Sweden. They counted the occurrence of different bird
