Summary

Salamanca's urban resilience strategies, particularly its integration of sustainability and heritage conservation, offer a model for addressing climate change challenges. The city's initiatives, including the Low Emission Strategy, Savia Salamanca, and Life Vía de la Plata, combine nature-based solutions with urban regeneration, reflecting progress in local policies like the Urban Agenda's Local Action Plan. However, long-term implementation faces hurdles such as stakeholder cooperation gaps, environmental indicator limitations, and social inclusion needs. The study analyzes these initiatives through policy reviews and secondary literature, highlighting both advancements and persistent challenges in achieving a balanced, resilient urban development model.
