Development Agency of Gradiska RAGADear Vickie,
We came across your expression of interest in the Interreg Euro-MED 8th Call – Green Living Areas and believe that your experience in Nature-Based Solutions, urban Living Labs and community engagement aligns very well with our project proposal.
The City of Gradiška (Bosnia and Herzegovina), in cooperation with our technology partner Dunavnet, is currently developing a project entitled **“Smart Green Health Cities – Digital and Nature-Based Solutions for Healthier Urban Spaces, under the topic Wellbeing and Health in Living Areas.
The project aims to improve environmental quality, public health and climate resilience by combining nature-based solutions, environmental monitoring, GIS and digital technologies. Through transnational pilot activities, participating cities will identify urban areas exposed to extreme heat and other environmental risks, implement targeted green interventions, and evaluate their impact on environmental conditions and citizens’ well-being.
We believe your expertise in Nature-Based Solutions, urban Living Labs, participatory planning, community-led green interventions and engagement of vulnerable groups could make a valuable contribution to our project, particularly in the implementation of pilot activities and the development of transferable solutions.
We are currently expanding our consortium and would be very interested in exploring the possibility of including Organization Earth as a project partner from Greece.
We would also be interested to know whether your organisation could implement a pilot intervention through your existing urban Living Lab in Athens or in cooperation with a local municipality.
We would be happy to share our project concept and explore possible areas of cooperation.
We look forward to hearing from you.
Best regards,
Jelena Bačić
