Abstract | Udon Thani is a province in northeastern Thailand which is rapidly growing and aims to become a regional hub despite being confronted with climate-related challenges. The research examines the limitation to the territorys climate resilience through the analysis of plans and policies at national, regional and local levels regarding the provincial development strategy with the focus on three sectors: land use, water supply, and wastewater management services. In doing so, this article identifies the other limitations to the mainstreaming of climate resilience into urban development planning, which includes vertical and horizontal institutional arrangement, legal framework, policy drivers. The researchers conducted. The research reveals that there are restrictions to climate mainstreaming as a result of institutional arrangements and gaps which have resulted in the lack of coordination between agencies at different levels of administration or agencies operating under different ministries. Moreover, the efficiency of the three urban services are undermined by the discrepancies of responsibility, information and financial resources allocated to the relevant actors. |
