Abstract: The contribution presents new theoretical and methodological frameworks for urban coastal planning to enhance climate change resilience processes by defining and implementing urban resilience macro-strategies. The research, based on experiments conducted in both American and Italian contexts, highlights the vulnerability and susceptibility of urban coastal areas to hydraulic risks associated with climate change, such as extreme events and sea level rise. The study also reports on the results of current pilot projects testing these macro-strategies. The findings underscore the importance of adopting integrated, multidisciplinary, and interscalar approaches for the transformation and protection of urban coastal areas.
