    Este seminario web temático forma parte de la Cooperación Urbana y Regional Internacional (IURC) Asia & Australasia, cuyo objetivo es promover la cooperación urbana y regional en los ámbitos del desarrollo urbano sostenible y la innovación entre ciudades de la UE y de fuera de la UE. La actividad se suma a los debates bilaterales en curso entre las ciudades piloto. Dentro de la red temática IURC n ° 2 "Renovación urbana y regional", este seminario web se centrará en el urbanismo táctico en los espacios públicos.

     

    Durante la última década, el concepto de urbanismo táctico (también conocido como "prototipado urbano") ha ganado un fuerte ritmo en muchas ciudades de todo el mundo. Las plazas peatonales, los carriles para bicicletas emergentes, los parques emergentes y los parques infantiles innovadores son solo algunos de los ejemplos desarrollados por las autoridades de la ciudad y la sociedad civil para mejorar la habitabilidad de sus ciudades. Las acciones se ponen a prueba a corto plazo para probar la funcionalidad y lograr la aceptación de las personas para soluciones a largo plazo.

     

    A través de una profunda discusión interactiva a nivel internacional, este seminario web temático tiene como objetivo mostrar los desafíos enfrentados y las soluciones implementadas en las ciudades piloto de IURC. El intercambio puede inspirar a otras ciudades piloto a capitalizar estas experiencias y transferir conocimientos a sus propias circunstancias. La actividad fortalecerá el enfoque regional/global del programa IURC. Se encargará de:

    1. Fomentar la cooperación entre ciudades de la UE y de terceros países interesadas en compartir experiencias sobre el desarrollo del urbanismo táctico.
    2. Identificar posibles áreas piloto y partes interesadas para explorar acciones transnacionales a nivel de ciudad.

     

    El programa será presentado por la Delegación de la Unión Europea en Nueva Zelanda y mostrará ejemplos de dos ciudades europeas y dos no europeas que trabajan en el programa IURC.

Around the world, cities are increasingly challenged by extreme weather and urban flooding. Innovative Nature-Based Solutions (NbS) such as rain gardens, green roofs, bio-retention swales, and blue-green infrastructure are proving to be low-energy, climate-resilient approaches that not only reduce flood risks but also deliver multiple social, environmental, and community benefits. In this IURC NA webinar on NbS, we will explore how leading cities are putting innovation into practice: How mandated requirements are being implemented at scale in large cities. How...

Transforming underused or abandoned urban spaces is a universal challenge, regardless of a city?s size or scale. These areas often signify untapped opportunities for socio-economic growth, environmental sustainability, and social integration. Left unaddressed, they can become stark symbols of inequity and fragmentation within communities. Join us for our second webinar from the IURC NA Urban Planning network, where we will review successful examples of revitalized decommissioned industrial sites, abandoned military facilities, and vacant public buildings in Madrid, Dublin, Toronto, Rome, and...

The circular economy has gained in popularity because its basic principles, such as designing out waste and pollution, keeping products and materials in use, and regenerating natural systems, can be applied at various scales, and the potential benefits are broad. Considering the core competencies of municipal governments, cities can play a well-rounded role in the circular economy by promoting the circular economy and acting as a role model, facilitating connections and establishing multi-level governance to align priorities and policy coherence, enabling appropriate governance conditions by mobilizing resources, adapting regulatory frameworks,...
