the Peri-Cene Project is dedicated to creating strategies that address the risks posed by climate change
The Peri-Cene Project is a groundbreaking research initiative led by Nutricape, focusing on the dynamic relationship between peri-urban areas and climate change.
Why Peri-Urban Areas Matter
Peri-urban areas play a crucial role in urban expansion, acting as a buffer zone between rural and urban environments. However, these regions are vulnerable to climate change, often facing increased risks like flooding, drought, and heatwaves. The Peri-Cene Project aims to develop climate-adaptive strategies that protect these critical zones and ensure their sustainable development.
Through spatial mapping, governance frameworks, and community engagement, the Peri-Cene Project provides a comprehensive blueprint to help cities and regions manage peri-urban zones in a way that mitigates environmental risks and promotes resilience.
Nutricape’s involvement in the Peri-Cene Project extends to cities like Chennai, Madurai, and Coimbatore, where we are mapping climate vulnerabilities and developing solutions to enhance resilience in rapidly growing peri-urban areas.
Building Resilience in Peri-Urban Communities
Climate Risk Adaptation
Developing adaptive strategies for peri-urban areas that are highly vulnerable to climate change.
Sustainable Development
Ensuring that peri-urban growth is managed in a way that supports long-term environmental and social sustainability.
Community Empowerment
Engaging local communities to build resilience and foster sustainable practices in peri-urban areas.
