The University of Coimbra (UPCoimbra) is leading a European project aimed at making cities more resilient to climate change. The initiative, which has a duration of three years, focuses on optimizing sustainable drainage systems and promoting integrated water management in urban environments.
The project covers cities in several European countries, seeking to develop solutions that allow urban communities to face the challenges posed by climate change. The approach aims to improve cities' response capacity to extreme weather events.
By focusing on sustainable drainage, the project aims to create more efficient systems that can handle variable water volumes, simultaneously contributing to environmental sustainability and the quality of life of European urban populations.
