AdaptNet is RMIT University Global Cities Institute's Climate Change Adaptation Working Group network focused on urban climate change adaptation. It provides links to the five best climate change papers that the service finds for that week. AdaptNet creates a set of common knowledge and reference points for participants and offers a stock of such knowledge. It focuses on cities in Australia and the Asia-Pacific region, but nested within the global network of cities. AdaptNet has been operating since 2006. Archives are available in English, Vietnamese and Bahasa Indonesian.
