For the City of Boston, climate change impacts are both a current reality and a future consideration. Leaders are working to address environmental hazards such as extreme heat, stormwater flooding, and coastal and riverine flooding, which represent the City's climate vulnerabilities and urban water challenges. Integrated urban water management (IUWM) is a model that upholds sustainability goals while also increasing adaptive capacity for climate resiliency, though implementation tends be difficult. Because water governance is essential to IUWM, this inquiry assesses Boston's governance capacity related to its water challenges by conducting interviews with local water managers via guidance from City Blueprint® Approach. Results indicate opportunities for organizational partnerships to realize a collaborative advantage, to enhance cross-stakeholder learning, and to promote redundancy in governance frameworks. Recommendations to advance these opportunities encourage an IUWM approach in Boston to increase the City's climate resilience in light of urban water challenges.
