CITY OF PARMA Interview

Cristina Pellegrini

EU project manager

Parma is a follower city. Together with Athens, Parma is a follower of Madrid, pilot city for the mediterranean climate zone. With URBREATH, the City of Parma aims to refine its climate adaptation strategy, currently defined in the SECAP approved in June 2021, and will contribute to reach the goals of the Climate City Contract approved by the EC in the context of the 100 Cities Mission. In particular with the participation in URBREATH project Parma wants to increase the knowledge and test new tools and methodologies to include green and nature based solutions (NBS) in a strategic way in urban regeneration projects. Parma will in particular apply the new acquired knowledge to the redevelopment of San Leonardo District.

Parma is particularly interested into the following URBREATH goals: social innovation aimed at the increased liveability of urban spaces; define intervention models for urban regeneration/built environment and green areas; definition of a set of (simple, easily measurables, easily collectibles) indicators on adaptation using ICT. The solutions will be adapted to the San Leonardo area to be then replicated in the rest of the city.

Parma is one of the 112 cities part of the EU Mission for climate neutral and smart cities. The city sunmitted the climate city contract in September 2023 and was awarded with the climate label in March 2024. With the ccc, Parma committed in reaching the climate neutrality by 2030. Thanks to URBREATH, Parma aims to accelerate the integration of adaptation measure into climate transition processes. Forestation and the use of urban green as an infrastructure in the early stage of each planning process is one of the city strategies for the resilience to climate change. Also the use of ICT in the management of green areas, including the realisation of a digital twin of trees, will be further accelerated with URBREATH.
