Project Cities

The Co-ADAPT project brings together Berlin, Vienna, Košice, and Ankara to collaboratively explore and implement community-driven nature-based solutions tailored to diverse urban contexts across Europe.

Berlin

Berlin is at the forefront of implementing nature-based solutions, particularly in water-sensitive urban design and community-led green initiatives. The city demonstrates how NbS can be integrated into dense urban environments to address climate adaptation and biodiversity challenges.
