CARDIMED EU

🌿 It’s time for the #NBS4EUcluster campaign! 🌊 Today we spotlight DesirMED project which is working to accelerate climate adaptation across one of Europe’s most vulnerable regions. By combining Nature-based Solutions , innovative technologies, and inclusive social practices, DesirMED helps regional leaders and communities develop effective, locally tailored adaptation pathways. In 5 Demonstrating Regions and 3 Replicating Regions, the project: ✅ Co-creates shared climate adaptation visions ✅ Tests and scales up place-based NbS ✅ Boosts knowledge exchange and peer learning ✅ Engages communities in just transition processes ✅ Unlocks funding for long-term resilience DesirMED is not just about adapting to climate change, it’s about building ownership, leadership, and momentum for a more resilient Mediterranean. 🔗 Dive deeper into the project: https://www.desirmed.eu/ #NBS4EUcluster #DesirMED #NatureBasedSolutions #ClimateResilience

🌍CARDIMED DEMO5 Annual Steering Committee 2025 Last July our French partners from DEMO5 gathered at the Saint Charles demo site in Marseille for their annual regional steering committee. 🤝 Representatives from Euro-Mediterranean Water Information System, Aix-Marseille University, EMPAN, Région Sud - Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur, and 36 regional stakeholders from public authorities, research centers, associations, and private organizations came together to: - Review progress on nature-based solutions at the Saint Charles and St Jérôme sites. - Share updates on biodiversity monitoring and scientific research. - Explore regional networking and transferability opportunities. 🔍 This annual meeting is a key moment to strengthen collaboration, align efforts, and prepare for the next phase of the project. 🌿 Read the full update on our website: https://cutt.ly/ArD1pogC #NatureBasedSolutions #UrbanResilience #ClimateAdaptation NetworkNature EU Mission Implementation Platform for Adaptation to Climate Change (MIP4Adapt)

#TBT to a Day of Roots, Water & Collaboration 🌱 On June 4th, Gardens of the Future welcomed 50 Balkan VETpreneurs to Nicosia under CARDIMED sub-DEMO9.3. 💧 🌿 Together, we explored how Nature-Based Solutions can strengthen climate resilience through conversations on water scarcity, hydroponics, and sustainable urban food systems, as well as hands-on volunteering in the Gardens. 💚 This day was a powerful reminder of how community, innovation, and collaboration across borders can bring climate action to life. 📖 Read the full story on our website: https://cutt.ly/yrDN9xeW #ClimateAdaptation #UrbanResilience #NatureBasedSolutions #CommunityEngagement NetworkNature EU Mission Implementation Platform for Adaptation to Climate Change (MIP4Adapt)

💧 Examples of Innovating Water Reuse ♻️ As water scarcity and urbanisation grow, smart solutions are more important than ever. Under the Horizon 2020 projects HOUSEFUL, demEAUmed, and ATRIUM, and now in #CARDIMED, alchemia-nova is leading the way with its vertECO© and GRETA™ green wall systems. From eco-communities in Austria to hotels in Spain and social housing in Barcelona, these Nature-Based Solutions are turning greywater into a valuable resource for irrigation, toilet flushing, and more, all while improving urban spaces and supporting climate resilience. 🌿 Read the full story on our website: https://cutt.ly/xrDMYCqi #ClimateAdaptation #UrbanResilience #NatureBasedSolutions NetworkNature EU Mission Implementation Platform for Adaptation to Climate Change (MIP4Adapt)

🌍 Let’s explore how LAND4CLIMATE is rethinking climate resilience!🌿 Part of the #NBS4EUcluster, LAND4CLIMATE addresses climate challenges in continental regions by putting the land perspective at the core of Nature-based Solutions implementation with a special focus on private land. Continental climates bring a unique mix of risks: floods, droughts, wildfires, and biodiversity loss. LAND4CLIMATE responds by: ✅ Promoting multifunctional NBS on private land ✅ Engaging local stakeholders and landowners ✅ Developing land policy tools, governance strategies, and business models The project is active in Austria, Czech Republic, Germany, Italy, Romania, and Slovakia, where it works with frontrunner and replicating regions to test, demonstrate, and scale solutions. By unlocking the untapped potential of private land and enabling just, effective climate adaptation, LAND4CLIMATE offers a blueprint for systemic change across Europe. 🔗 Dive into the project and learn more: https://land4climate.eu/ #NBS4EUcluster #LAND4CLIMATE #NatureBasedSolutions #ClimateAdaptation NetworkNature EU Mission Implementation Platform for Adaptation to Climate Change (MIP4Adapt)

🥬From Gardens to Table: How Nicosia is Growing Climate Resilience 🌱 In Nicosia, climate action is taking root in creative and inspiring ways. Under CARDIMED sub-DEMO9.3, our partner Gardens of the Future is turning everyday experiences, from shared dinners to open air cooking classes, into opportunities for the community to engage with Nature Based Solutions. 🍽️ Recent events, including a farm to table dinner with local leaders and a four part culinary education series, have brought climate innovation closer to home. These initiatives are not only about vertical farming and circular water use, but also about culture, dialogue and community resilience. 📖 Read the full story about how sub-DEMO9.3 is growing resilience in Nicosia 👉 https://cutt.ly/7rDBbQlK #NatureBasedSolutions #ClimateAdaptation #CommunityEngagement #UrbanResilience NetworkNature EU Mission Implementation Platform for Adaptation to Climate Change (MIP4Adapt)
