This report discusses methodologies and results of two case studies aimed at developing and testing a participatory risk assessment toolkit for the fast-growing secondary cities of Satkhira (Bangladesh) and Huế (Vietnam) which are both exposed to rapid urban development and existing vulnerability to climate-related impacts such as floods and storms.
