We’re thrilled to announce that Francesco Tognoni, representing our project Coordinator Lisbon Council, is going to participate in the ‘NetworkNature Annual Event 2024 | Busting myths: People with nature’ which will be held in Belgium on 25th September 2024. This event will focus on dismantling misconceptions about ecosystem restoration, highlighting the vital role that Nature-Based Solutions (NbS) play in building more resilient, sustainable cities.
URBREATH’s mission aligns perfectly with this year’s theme. Our vision is to transform urban landscapes by incorporating nature into city infrastructure—think green roofs, urban forests, and wetlands. By doing so, we aim to reduce the urban heat island effect, mitigate flood risks, improve air quality, and enhance the overall well-being of city dwellers.
Key Benefits of URBREATH’s Participation:
- Insightful Collaboration: Engaging with industry experts, researchers, and policymakers will provide URBREATH with fresh perspectives and innovative ideas to drive urban greening projects forward.
- Networking Opportunities: Connecting with like-minded stakeholders will open doors for collaboration, enabling us to scale up efforts to integrate nature into cities globally.
By joining this global conversation, URBREATH is set to strengthen its approach to creating cities where people and nature thrive together.
