Resilient and Green

Resilient & Green is one of the themes our collaborative Climate Programme covers. Its goal is to help London become environmentally, socially and economically resilient to the changing climate, in a way that safeguards and enhances green and blue infrastructure and ensures that they are equally accessible to all.

Over the next two years, we will develop a strong shared vision for a climate resilient London, and strengthen London local government’s strategic adaptation capacity. The theme will focus on developing effective partnership, governance and leadership arrangements to manage London’s key climate risks.

These will be supported by the identification, collation and promotion of the data and evidence needed by boroughs to effectively understand climate risks and to assess the impact we are having on London’s resilience. 

The lead boroughs for Resilient & Green are London Borough of Southwark and Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea.

Our two-year implementation plan identified key deliverables for 2023-24 and assessed the resource requirements to deliver this first phase of implementation and build a sustainable longer-term programme of work.

Resilient and Green Action Plan 

The purpose of this action plan is to achieve the ambition set out in London Councils Joint Statement on Climate Change, to ‘create a resilient and green London’.

By this, we mean that London should be environmentally, socially and economically resilient to the changing climate, in a way that safeguards and enhances green and blue infrastructure and ensures that they are equally accessible to all.
