Abstract Urban areas, densely populated and often located in vulnerable coastal regions, are particularly susceptible to the impacts of climate change. This chapter explores the diverse ways technology can be leveraged to enhance climate resilience in these urban environments. Focusing on mitigation and adaptation strategies, the study examines the potential of smart city technologies, including sensor networks, data analytics, and AI, to improve infrastructure management and disaster preparedness. Specific examples include real- time flood monitoring systems, predictive modelling for extreme weather events, and optimized energy grids for reduced carbon emissions. Furthermore, the chapter investigates the role of digital platforms in facilitating community engagement and fostering collaborative responses to climate- related challenges. Furthermore, the importance of equitable access to technology and the need for robust data governance frameworks to ensure that technological interventions effectively contribute to building climate- resilient and sustainable urban futures is explored. © 2025, IGI Global Scientific Publishing.
