      <abstract>
        <p>Cities nowadays are facing a number of sustainability challenges in the context of climate change. Cities are vulnerable to the impacts of climate change and the need to connect climate change adaptation and mitigation with broader assessment of sustainability is becoming increasingly important. Urban planners need to plan and create more sustainable and resilient communities, make a plan for climate adaptation, preserve and create green space, adopt green building policies, engage the community in climate change planning process, approach climate change planning on a regional level. The methodology approach in this scientific paper focuses on defining the urban climate adaptation, overcoming urban adaptive capacity aspects and creating urban climate adaptation planning that will be factor for sustainable development in the cities.</p>
