๐คฉActive week! #MedCities has launched the #URWAN#naturebasedsolutions Enabler Pack in the project final event titled: โDemocratic Water Landscapes: co-creating inclusive green spaces with water at the coreโ. We explore how urban green and blue infrastructures can be reimagined!
#URWAN final event: 'Nature-based solutions are not an option anymore, but the only way forward in the water stress and climate change context'
๐ฃ๏ธ@svimed: 'People who design their own spaces develop an emotional connection to them, becoming the first guardians of the public good'
During the #URWAN event, #MedCities launched a comprehensive toolkit designed to support municipalities in implementing nature-based solutions (NbS) to address the growing impacts of climate change, with a focus on water-related challenges.

๐ช๐บFor #MedCities it is key to be heard at the European level. @jcasteg , representing MedCities & @AMB_MetroGlobal participated in the Stakeholder consultation for the #ARLEM report on 'Delivering the Pact for the Mediterranean' with local and regional authorities at the @EU_CoR
๐ฃ๏ธ As the #Mediterranean region is unequal, @jcasteg highlighted that building a sustainable and resilient #Mediterranean requires stronger support for territorial projects that address shared challenges such as climate resilience, urban sustainability, and territorial cohesion.
๐MedCities organised the webinar โGender-responsive urban planning: Presentation of the guide to develop everyday life urban planning in the Mediterraneanโ, as part of the #MELUP project, funded by @cooperaciocat#ACCD
