Case studies of four cities in Madagascar (Tuléar, Maroantsetra, Tsihombe, and Antananarivo) are presented, highlighting specific vulnerabilities and risks in each city. The report aims to inform urban planning and development strategies that take into account climate risks and promote resilience in Madagascar's urban areas.
