• Planners working in local governments cities in lowand middle-income countries that are developing a City Development Strategy, have some knowledge of climate change and want to integrate this aspect.
• City planners working in local governments who have developed a City Development Strategy and have integrated climate change but want to review or refine the process with specific regards to climate
change aspects.
• City planners working in local governments who have no previous experience in developing a City Development Strategy but who are planning to do so in the future, have basic knowledge of climate
