Summary:International audience This paper aims to examine the interrelations of spatial characteristics to the often-unjust distribution of climate change risk and vulnerabilities and develop a methodological approach for Kampala to redress this situation. The research intends to increase the understanding of spatial equity and proposes a method to quantify it in environments of limited preceding research and data availability to support better-informed policy and spatial intervention strategies.
