About event

🔥🌊 This summer showed in full force how climate change can torment us. First, the long and exhausting August heat without precipitation, then extreme torrents of water, which we could not cope with in many places. The topic of water and the public space of cities is therefore very topical. We will talk about how to use water to cool our cities in hot weather, but also how to deal with torrential rains to minimize damage to health, buildings and public spaces. We have invited a number of experienced guests who will present inspiring stories of adaptation solutions.
