Cities are growing in central Europe, often turning green areas into grey concrete places. This urban sprawl accelerates negative effects of climate change such as urban heat islands. The GreenScape-CE project works on reversing the trend by making urban areas greener again. The partnership strengthens planning capacities and pilots the application of nature-based solutions and green infrastructure approaches in five cities, which are significantly affected by urban heat island effects.
Objectives
GreenScape CE paves a way for integrating nature-based solutions (NBS) and green infrastructure
(GI) in the grey infrastructure in 5 CE urban areas, significantly affected by aggravating urban heat island effect: Milano Metropolitan Area, Ptuj, Szegedin, Warsaw and Zagreb through peer-to-peer
learning, transnational capacity building and participatory decision-making. GreenScape CE will utilize the initiated transnational cooperation between 33 organisations to jointly develop 5 NBS/GI action plans, followed by 3 pilot actions using 3 jointly developed solutions, and 2 CE-wide strategies. The main beneficiaries of the project results are local governments and citizens.
Both groups will benefit from know-how exchange, strengthened multi-level governance, tailored capacity building events, as well as the initiated NBS pilot actions that contribute to the well-being and social inclusion.
