Background
Cities across Europe face growing challenges from climate change, biodiversity loss, pollution, urban heat, and social inequality. These challenges are often particularly pronounced in disadvantaged urban areas, where environmental pressures coincide with poorer public spaces and greater social vulnerability.
GreenInCities develops and demonstrates new approaches to urban regeneration based on Nature-Based Solutions. The project combines urban greening and re-naturing with citizen participation, digital technologies, and data-driven decision support to create healthier, more inclusive, biodiverse, and climate-resilient cities.
Through Living Labs across European cities, GreenInCities brings together citizens, planners, researchers, technology providers, and public authorities to co-design interventions, monitor their impact, and develop approaches that can be replicated in other cities.
