Post-conflict cities face overlapping climate vulnerability, damaged infrastructure, and unresolved memory landscapes. This session explores how the archaeology of dark heritage can support climate-resilient urban recovery by integrating material evidence of conflict into land governance, infrastructure planning, and risk-sensitive reconstruction. Drawing on case-based research from post-conflict regions, we examine how spatial documentation, forensic methods, and community-informed heritage practices can strengthen adaptive capacity and inclusive recovery. The session bridges science, policy, and practice by demonstrating how evidence-based approaches can inform climate-sensitive rebuilding strategies while addressing justice, land rights, and social cohesion. Through interdisciplinary dialogue among archaeologists, urban planners, and governance experts, the session contributes to advancing implementation pathways aligned with the Global Research and Action Agenda and the IPCC Cities process.
