Resilient Cities in the Context of Climate Crisis
28 April 2022 - 1:00 pm - 3:00 pm
About the event
In this event, we aim to further explore the theoretical knowledge around the concept of resilient cities and talk about exemplary green city practices from both Europe and Turkey. We welcome anyone who wishes to increase their knowledge and contribute to the discussion about solutions to the pressing problems of our time.
Context
This event is part of the Cities As Places of Hope project. A project organised by the Green European Foundation with the support of Oikos, the Institute for Political Ecology, Transición Verde, Fundacio Nous Horitzons, ASSED Sunrise and Green Thought Association, Wetenschappelijk Bureau GroenLinks and with the financial support of the European Parliament to the Green European Foundation.
Launched in 2019, this project focuses on the development of progressive city networks as a key factor to create a better Europe. The project aims to bring together progressive and transformative local and international city networks, provide spaces for cooperation, facilitate information exchange, share and give visibility to best practices, and ultimately contribute to the creation of a positive narrative about the future of Europe. “Resilient cities” will be the theme of the project in 2022.
