European projects
We work with cities and regions across Europe to co-design and implement projects that drive sustainable, place-based, and inclusive transformation.
Our focus areas
Our work is informed by three interconnected areas of expertise that are central to the transformation of cities and regions across Europe. They shape how we approach challenges, develop solutions and support our partners in creating more sustainable, inclusive and resilient places.
Nature-Based Solutions
We help cities and regions harness the potential of nature to address pressing environmental and climate challenges while creating wider social and economic value. We work with local and regional authorities and communities to identify adaptation needs and co-create nature-based solutions for challenges such as water management, sustainable land use, urban heat and biodiversity. We focus on solutions that work for both people and nature — and that can be integrated into wider development strategies and action.
New European Bauhaus
As an official partner of the New European Bauhaus Initiative, we help cities and communities translate its principles into locally meaningful action. We facilitate co-creation processes that bring together sustainability, inclusion and the quality of our built and natural environments, helping partners develop places that are not only greener and more resilient, but also more beautiful, welcoming and connected to the people who live in them.
Innovative & Inclusive Governance
We help cities and regions create the conditions for better decisions and more effective action. We identify and help break institutional and sectoral silos, strengthen cross-sectoral and integrated planning, and develop more collaborative forms of governance. Through inclusive participation, co-creation and multi-level cooperation, we help our partners bring diverse perspectives into decision-making and build stronger ownership of change.
