Resiliencia a inundaciones : nuevo paradigma para el diseño urbano.

Abstract

The article addresses the problem of urban vulnerability to the floods generated by climate change; its objective is to review and analyze strategies and policies to create resilient cities. The methodology included a systematic bibliographic search in a twenty-year observation window (1996-2016), which was carried out in six languages. The study presents five relevant strategies among the scientific community that have been successfully applied in many cities: green roofs, rainwater tanks, permeable urban surfaces, surface rainwater management, and local stormwater disposal. It also includes, for its potential and scope, a public policy: water sensitive cities. As a conclusion, the article draws attention to the urgency of applying these strategies in cities that still manage their stormwater with the traditional method (drain and pipe), because they remain vulnerable to the catastrophic events generated by climate change.
