Sharing sustainable solutions for green approaches in urban environments

ended

"There are several instruments and financial support to help European cities move towards greener and more sustainable urban development. Cities are already making the most of what ig offered to improve their urban development planning strategies and implement sustainable solutions and systems for monitoring biodiversity in urban areasparticularlyar tree species. The European Union's policy is to support cities in making them greener and more sustainable by helping urban planners achieve the EU's goals of an ecological transition to a circular economy. The EU's 2030 Diversity Strategy includes a nature restoration plan to help urban authorities implement Nature-Based solutions (NBS) that can improve the quality of life. The EU's strategy for adapting to climate change supports cities in taking measures to mitigate the effects of global warming. As part of the European Green Pact, a new Circular Economy Action Plan (CEAP) was adopted in 2020. By embracing the concepts of a circular economy in resource management, cities can embark on greater sustainability. The EU Forest Strategy aims to improve the quality, quantity and sustainability of EU forests. It supports forestry and the forest bio-economy while preserving the sustainable production and use of biomass, conserving biodiversity and setting a plan to plant three billion trees across Europe by 2030. The exchange of sustainable solutions and good practices in the direction of monitoring and management systems of tree species suitable for living in urban environments between cities included in the project proposal will lead to the creation of a ""green, clean municipality full of life"" and to improve the state of the environment, including visible, tangible improvements in the physical environment, air quality and better management of natural capital within each of the partner municipalities."
