It is globally recognised that action needs to be taken to address the negative effects of climate change. These effects, such as more extreme rainfall, may threaten the quality of life of those living in urban environments. Increasing the implementation of climate change adaptation measures is addressed in this thesis by engaging the construction sector while focusing on the dwellings of Dutch housing associations. This cooperation could work as a catalyst for information-sharing and increased efficiency in the construction process. The effect could be further improved by bringing in external players, such as local governments and water boards. To implement measures more easily, framing is very important. This book not only offers valuable information for those involved with the Dutch housing stock and climate change impacts, but will also help parties outside The Netherlands to cope with climate change adaptation in built-up areas.
