On June 11, an educational event on community urban greenery and rainwater harvesting took place in Berlin. Using the example of greening activities carried out by residents in public spaces in Berlin’s “Graefekiez” neighborhood, the event provided insights into the collaborative implementation of small-scale nature-based solutions.

On 26 June 2026, the Co-ADAPT Nature-Based Solutions Exploration Seminar brought together participants from diverse backgrounds in Vienna to exchange ideas, explore inspiring examples, and imagine how nature-based solutions can help create healthier, more resilient cities. Through presentations, site explorations, collaborative workshops, and open discussions, the seminar created a dynamic space for learning, creativity, and collective reflection.

On 25 June 2026, the Co-ADAPT Nature-Based Solutions Exploration Seminar officially began in Vienna with an interactive workshop at WEST – Fassfabrik, a creative hub dedicated to sustainability, experimentation, and community innovation. The opening session invited participants to discover how nature-based solutions can emerge not only from scientific knowledge but also through observation, imagination, artistic expression, and collaborative design.

On 8 May 2026, Ankara University hosted the second Co-ADAPT Nature-Based Solutions (NBS) Seminar, bringing together young participants to explore how nature can help address urban challenges. Organised by the Nature Conservation Centre (DKM) within the framework of the Co-ADAPT (Community-Based Climate Adaptation and Biodiversity through Small-Scale Nature-Based Solutions) project, the seminar encouraged participants to develop creative, community-driven ideas for a greener and more climate-resilient Ankara.

On 30 April 2026, the first Co-ADAPT Stakeholder Seminar was held in Ankara, bringing together representatives from local authorities, academia, civil society, and citizens to explore how small-scale nature-based solutions can help cities become more resilient to climate change and biodiversity loss. The seminar was organised by the Nature Conservation Centre (DKM) as part of the Co-ADAPT (Community-Based Climate Adaptation and Biodiversity through Small-Scale Nature-Based Solutions) project, co-funded by the European Union through the Erasmus+ Programme.

A local stakeholder meeting of the CO-ADAPT Project was held in Ankara.

A field visit of the Co-ADAPT Project was successfully carried out in Berlin on 18–19 February 2026, bringing together project partners for a comprehensive knowledge exchange and on-site exploration of nature-based solutions (NbS). The visit combined strategic discussions, expert input, and field-based learning to deepen understanding of how urban areas can adapt to climate change and biodiversity loss through integrated, community-driven approaches.

Stakeholder Analysis process has started.

Our project ‘Climate Adaptation and Biodiversity through Small-Scale Nature-based Solutions in Cities has officially started.
