🌿 Climate-Resilient Community Spaces

• Paris is converting schoolyards into multifunctional “Oasis” spaces that cool neighbourhoods and provide shared community access.
• Semarang and Milan are adapting schoolyards with greening and shading to reduce heat exposure and create safe outdoor environments.
• Quezon City is redesigning public spaces to improve thermal comfort and expand community use.
• Singapore’s Cambridge Road project demonstrates how shading, planting and micro-infrastructure can deliver cooling in dense areas.
• Chennai’s Urban Farming Initiative turns unused land into shaded, productive green areas that cool surrounding neighbourhoods.

These examples show how relatively simple design changes can reduce heat stress, expand public comfort, support health and create shared spaces for local communities. They provide fast, visible benefits while strengthening long-term urban resilience.
