Environmental Factors' Impact On Infrastructure Taken Into Account In Urban Planning - Deputy Minister
According to him, public awareness, disaster risk planning and implementation at the local level, as well as the organization of communication systems, hold vital importance.
"The development of climate-resilient cities and the adaptation of infrastructure to climate change are among the core priorities. Key factors include the preparation of spatial planning documents, optimization in engineering and design, and building urban infrastructure in a climate-resilient manner. The impact of environmental factors on urban infrastructure is taken into account at every stage of construction and urban planning activity," Khanlarov noted.
He stressed that a number of critical measures must be implemented to mitigate the impact of natural disasters and increase the resilience of cities to ecological factors.
"The Ministry of Emergency Situations is carrying out serious work toward utilizing energy-efficient lighting and heating systems, developing water supply infrastructure, raising awareness among construction specialists regarding climate change, utilizing renewable energy sources, and increasing the climate resilience of buildings and structures based on the 'smart city' concept. Overall, the organization of early warning systems and joint cooperation in urban climate resilience are essential," the deputy minister added.
