The URWAN training programme

URWAN training in Syracuse on Nature-Based Solutions for climate adaptation, sustainable water management, and urban resilience in Mediterranean territories.

Designed for local authority managers, staff and technical professionals, the kits explore how green infrastructure and Nature-based Solutions (NbS) can strengthen climate adaptation, sustainable water management and urban resilience across Mediterranean territories.
The training comprises three core sessions, focused on establishing the conditions needed to trigger beneficial processes. This involves incorporating NbS into local regulatory frameworks and ensuring coordination across various departments, including planning, environment, and public works.
