Description
The aim of the project is to create a green and blue infrastructure in Pobiedziska intended to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, increase the surface covered by green areas and create facilities for education.
The project addresses the problems identified in the the framework of the documentation of Pobiedziska City and Commune Development Strategy such as:
- low resistance of the commune to negative effects of climate change,
- insufficient public green space,
- inefficient management of rainwater,
- insufficient low-emission transport infrastructure (footpaths and bicycle paths, parking lots),
- insufficient amount of educational activities on climate change.
The project envisages measures such as:
- adaptation activities concerning the creation of a system of public urban greenery intended to increase rainwater retention,
- mitigation of negative effects of climate change
- development of zero-emission transport through the construction of pedestrian and bicycle paths,
- implementation of energy-saving solutions with the use of RES in green areas
- educational and informational events such as campaigns raising community''s awareness of climate change.
The residents and visitors of the Pobiedziska commune will be the beneficiaries of the project. They will be able enjoy not only green and blue infrastructure but also educational and informational actions.
The project partner INTBAU from Norway is actively involved in educational activities. The partner''s commitment concerns participation in promotional events such as Opening Conferences and training courses on climate change and the ways to mitigate and adapt to its effects.
The benefits of the partnership include the exchange of experience, knowledge and best practices in the field of increasing resistance to climate changes that had been implemented in Norway.
