Montreal and its metropolitan region have a vast built, urban and landscape heritage that bears its identity as a cultural metropolis, a heritage whose population has mobilised to safeguard and enrich it. How is it affected by climate change? How does its safeguarding contribute to the decarbonisation strategies of local and national economies? What tools are needed?

Title of the event: Preservation of shared built heritage in Delta River cities & climate change mitigation. Greater Bay Area (GBA) including Macau, Canton & Hong Kong case-studies and other delta river cities examples
What? It will be an online conference focused on the following topics:
- Preservation of Shared Built Heritage in Delta River Cities & Climate Change Mitigation The great River Deltas of the World are home to more than 500 million people. As our key case study in this webinar, the Pearl River Delta Metropolitan Region (PRD), now part of the “Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macau Greater Bay Area” (GBA) in Southern China has become one of the largest contiguous urban regions in the world. The 2020 State of the World Cities report, published by the United Nations Human Settlements Programme, estimates the population of the delta region at more than 120 million people.
- In Pearl River Delta Region, climate change is estimated to cause important impacts on the regional economy, which represents nearly 10% of China’s GNP. Relative sea level rise, flooding and immersion risks make this region particularly vulnerable. In the southern part of the Delta, urban development is at risk because the land lies between – 0.3m to 0.4m relative to mean sea level (MSL).
- According to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) report, the Delta region including built areas such as the Historical Centre of Macau (UNESCO World Heritage, 2005) are also subject to more frequent and extreme climate conditions such as increase in the intensity of tropical cyclones and storms.
- Cultural heritage management, especially in Delta River City-Regions is a key factor to preserve historical and cultural identity as well as touristic attractivity of these places that have since long time served as commercial crossroads and cultural melting pots.

The cultural phenomenon of Montenegro – stecci – as part of the universal values of the world heritage in the open space, is facing a major challenge today due to the impact of climate change. Therefore, it is of paramount importance to initiate this topic, in order to preserve them and protect them from growing negative impact of climate change. A documentary film about stecci sites in Montenegro, with the emphasis on their condition, will be presented through a case study and as a result of research. The focus of the presentation is on the school population that will have the opportunity to get familiar with this segment of the cultural heritage and the risks it is exposed to during the visit and through animation of the cultural experts of the Ministry of Education, Science, Culture and Sports.
