The Polytechnic University of Coimbra is participating in a European project dedicated to developing more resilient cities. The project aims to find innovative solutions to address the challenges posed by climate change.
The main focus of the project is on stormwater management, seeking more efficient ways to handle precipitation in urban areas. This approach emerges in response to the growing impacts of climate change on European cities.
The higher education institution in Coimbra is part of a broader consortium of European partners working collaboratively to develop and implement urban adaptation strategies. The goal is to create cities better prepared for extreme climate events.
This project reflects the growing concern of European universities in contributing scientific knowledge and practical solutions to contemporary environmental problems, particularly regarding urban sustainability and city resilience.
