As climate change intensifies, cities across Europe are increasingly grappling with the Urban Heat Island (UHI) effect. On April 14th, 2025, from 10:00 to 12:30 CEST, Ecologic Institute, together with Roma Capitale's Climate Office and PwC Italy, invites you to an online workshop focused on solutions and strategies to reduce UHI impacts in urban environments. Titled "Mitigating the Urban Heat Island Effect: Learning from Best Practices in European Cities", the workshop will bring together representatives from Athens, Bilbao, Milan, and other EU cities to share real-world experiences, proven interventions, and lessons learned in building urban resilience.

 Learning from Leading European Cities

The event is part of the project "Climate Adaptation – The Urban Heat Island effect in the city of Rome", funded through the European Commission's Technical Support Instrument – SG #REFORM. Participants will gain insight into innovative and replicable climate adaptation measures, engage with international experts, and connect with peers working on sustainable urban development across Europe.

Register by 31 March, 2025, and secure your spot!

European cities are coming together to share practical, innovative solutions for tackling the Urban Heat Island effect and building climate-resilient urban futures.
