STUDIO SECTION
Accelerating Climate Action
Four Scenarios for Jaipur, Rajasthan, India
"We are living on this planet as if we had another one to go to."-- Terri Swearingen
The joint design studio and planning capstone work on the integration of urban policy and design into sustainable urban development practices to accelerate climte change action in the Indian city of Jaipur, the capital of Rajasthan. During the semester, students worked closely with our client-partners, the UN-Habitat’s Policy, Legislation, and Governance (PLG), the Innovation Section, UN-Habitat India and their Government Partners, and the UN Habitat Sustainable Cities: Integrated Approach Pilot Project in Jaipur.
The two volumes presented in this exhibition summarize the work undertaken during the semester. Students reviewed legal frameworks and assessed national, state and local climate change plans relevant to Jaipur; conducted case studies on relevant local climate action initiatives; and developed thematic mappings and research on Jaipur. To translate policies into design framewoks, students worked on four different scenarios looking at a central site in Jaipur selected by the local government. The alternative approaches foreground students research design interests addressing water stewardsip, climate justice, integrated neighborhood design, and participatory frameworks.

STUDENT WORK
Volume 1 documents the assessment of state and district level policies through the five areas of the UN-Habitat Law and Climate Change Toolkit: governance and institutional arrangements, planning instruments, planning for adaptation, planning for mitigation, and economic and financial instruments. This framework was used to assess the 2014 Rajasthan State Action Plan on Climate Change, the 2017 Rajasthan Urban Development Policy, and the District Master Development Plan Jaipur 2025. This volume also includes an inventory of city-level initiatives on climate action and a thematic mapping exercise introducing Jaipur.
Volume 2 documents the redevelopment of the Jyoti Nagar Housing Board Flats neighborhood in central Jaipur. The redevelopment of this valuable property aims to upgrade the housing stock, rehouse current dwellers in larger units, and create additional affordable housing by increasing the allowed density on site. Four alternate schemes explore a wide range of design considerations for the site, foregrounding relevant socioenvironmental questions and integrating culturally grounded adaptation and mitigation strategies assessed through the UN-Habitat Toolkit. All four scenarios offer a vision to establish innovative redevelopment parameters accelerating climate action.
