Sequías: soluciones innovadoras para preparar nuestras ciudades a eventos de escasez de agua

Los períodos prolongados de sequía ya están causando estragos en las ciudades de América Latina y el Caribe. Un crecimiento urbano que no se preocupa del balance hídrico de sus fuentes agua, combinado con alteraciones en los patrones de lluvia por el cambio climático, son aspectos que invitan a repensar la forma en la que las ciudades asegurarán el acceso al agua de hoy en adelante. En este episodio presentamos soluciones que buscan diversificar la forma de acceder a agua, promover la circularidad en su gestión y traer nuevamente el ciclo del agua al tejido urbano. #BID #MejorandoVidas #BIDImpact+ #CitiesLab #ResilienciaClimatica #Adaptacion #Sequia #NbS Desde el Banco Interamericano de Desarrollo trabajamos para mejorar vidas en América Latina y el Caribe. http://www.iadb.org/es

Tormentas y lluvias extremas: el agua lluvia en exceso, de problema a oportunidad

Es de consenso común que el crecimiento urbano alteró los eslabones del ciclo natural del agua a través de la impermeabilización del suelo, explotación de acuíferos, desecamiento de cuerpos de agua, encausamiento de quebradas y riachuelos, etc. Estos factores incrementan la vulnerabilidad de las ciudades frente a eventos de lluvias extremas, resultando en inundaciones, deslizamientos de tierra y otros impactos que afectan a la infraestructura urbana e incluso causan pérdidas humanas. En este episodio presentamos casos innovadores de soluciones basadas en la naturaleza que traen de vuelta el ciclo del agua al tejido urbano, que aplicadas en escala, tienen el potencial de reducir considerablemente la vulnerabilidad climática. #BID #MejorandoVidas #BIDImpact+ #CitiesLab #ResilienciaClimatica #Adaptacion #LluviasIntensas #Inundacion #NbS #AguaLluvia Desde el Banco Interamericano de Desarrollo trabajamos para mejorar vidas en América Latina y el Caribe. http://www.iadb.org/es

Calor extremo: soluciones para combatir a una amenaza silenciosa

El calor extremo es un riesgo climático subestimado pues no es tan visible o tangible como una inundación, un deslizamiento de tierra o un incendio forestal. Se estima que en el verano de 2022 murieron más de 60,000 personas en Europa por calor extremo. El crecimiento de la mancha urbana, la materialidad del tejido urbano y la ausencia de cobertura vegetal acrecientan el problema del calor extremo en ciudades concentrándolo en las llamadas islas de calor. En este episodio presentamos cómo se está abordando este problema con el uso de herramientas digitales, participación ciudadana, prototipos de cobertura vegetal y arreglos institucionales. #BID #MejorandoVidas #BIDImpact+ #CitiesLAB #ResilienciaClimatica #Adaptacion #CalorExtremo #IsladeCalorUrbano #OladeCalor #SbN Desde el Banco Interamericano de Desarrollo trabajamos para mejorar vidas en América Latina y el Caribe. http://www.iadb.org/es

Droughts: innovative solutions to prepare our cities for water scarcity events

Prolonged periods of drought are already wreaking havoc in Latin American and Caribbean cities. Urban growth that does not care about the water balance of their water sources, combined with alterations in rainfall patterns due to climate change, are aspects that invite us to rethink the way in which cities will ensure access to water from now on. In this episode we present solutions that seek to diversify the way water is accessed, promote circularity in water management and bring the water cycle back into the urban fabric. #IDB #Improvinglives #IDBImpact+ #CitiesLab #ClimateResilience #Adaptation #Drought #Suds #WaterSensitiveUrbanDesign #ClimateChange #NbS At the Inter-American Development Bank we work to improve lives in Latin America and the Caribbean. http://www.iadb.org

Extreme storms and rainfall: excess rainwater from problem to opportunity

It is a common consensus that urban growth has altered the links in the natural water cycle through soil sealing, exploitation of aquifers, drying up of water bodies, channeling of streams and creeks, etc. These factors increase the vulnerability of cities to extreme rainfall events, resulting in floods, landslides and other impacts that affect urban infrastructure and even cause human losses. In this episode we present innovative cases of nature-based solutions that bring the water cycle back into the urban fabric, which, when applied at scale, have the potential to significantly reduce climate vulnerability. #IDB #Improvinglives #IDBImpact+ #CitiesLab #ClimateResilience #Adaptation #ExtremeRainfall #WaterHarvest #Floods #NbS #FlashFloods #UrbanWater At the Inter-American Development Bank we work to improve lives in Latin America and the Caribbean. http://www.iadb.org

Extreme heat: solutions to cope with a silent threat

Extreme heat is an underestimated climate risk as it is not as visible or tangible as a flood, landslide or forest fire. It is estimated that in the summer of 2022 more than 60,000 people died from extreme heat in Europe. The growth of urban sprawl, the materiality of the urban fabric and the absence of vegetation cover increase the problem of extreme heat in cities by concentrating it in so-called heat islands. In this episode we present how this problem is being tackled with the use of digital tools, citizen participation, vegetation cover prototypes and institutional arrangements. #IDB #Improvinglives #IDBImpact+ #CitiesLab #ClimateResilience #Adaptation #Heat #UrbanHeat #ExtremeHeat #NbS #UrbanHeatIsland #Heatwave At the Inter-American Development Bank we work to improve lives in Latin America and the Caribbean. http://www.iadb.org

Neighborhoods, Big Data & Artificial Intelligence: Technology for Urban Integration

One of the main limitations faced by local governments is the lack of reliable and up-to-date information for decision-making. This is particularly noticeable when it comes to informal settlements, often invisible to official statistics, making it difficult to diagnose shortcomings and plan upgrading programs. In this episode, we analyze the potential of various technological and data science tools to contribute to the visibility and work in informal neighborhoods. We present three projects that use different technologies and data to map informal neighborhoods in a novel and participatory way.

Informal Housing: How to Improve Self-Production Quality

Most of the housing deficit in Latin America and the Caribbean can be addressed not necessarily by building new houses, but by improving existing ones. The qualitative housing deficit (i.e., homes with poor quality building materials, structural deficiencies, or overcrowding) particularly affects people in informal neighborhoods, where most of the houses are self-produced. In this episode, we focus on the work of three organizations that aim to address the qualitative housing deficit and improve the quality of self-production: Habitat for Humanity, Vivenda, and Build Change.
