How can cities use nature to become more resilient, inclusive, and liveable? Our sister project #URBREATH, together with #GreenInCities, #ReGreeneration and @Commit2Green, is hosting a webinar on how NbS are transforming urban spaces. 📅 19 Nov| 11:00–12:15 CET Register here:https://bit.ly/4qEVYxG

🗣️“Volem que la recerca impacti en la governança; cal aterrar-la i apropar-la a qui pren decisions. És un repte institucional i cultural” @juliaazpiroz.bsky.social exemplifica aquesta tasca al PEMB explicant @greenincities.bsky.social i jornada #Embarriados. Vols saber més?⤵️

Back from #NetworkNature 2025! We had the opportunity to engage with over 100 EU-funded projects to explore #NbS for urban resilience, climate adaptation, and biodiversity, and to take part in discussions around finance challenges, policy integration, and citizen & stakeholder engagement.

🌳❓ Why choose #nature? Commit2Green partners are excited to join @greenincities.bsky.social, ReGreeneration Europe, URBREATH, & ClimaGen at the #NetworkNature Annual Event next week, as we share how Nature-based Solutions are a crucial part of building #resilience to #climate change.

GreenInCities will join the #NetworkNature Annual Event 2025 “Choose Nature” on 16 Sept in Brussels. Together with sister projects #Regreeneration, #URBREATHE, @commit2green.bsky.social & #ClimAGen (Urban Greening and Renaturing cluster), we’ll highlight how #NbS drive resilience & prosperity.
