Strengthening Urban Resilience
Find out how we adapt to the effects of climate change while ensuring the city's liveability and resilience.
As a small, low-lying tropical island, Singapore is vulnerable to the effects of climate change. The city is expected to experience higher temperatures, more intense rainfall and rising sea levels within this century. Our urban environment must adapt to these scenarios while ensuring its liveability. By optimising land use and unlocking new underground spaces — the city can boost its resilience and expand possibilities for the future.
