to the collaborative efforts in our Follower Cities – Siena, Nova Gorica, Høje Taastrup, Brussels, and Khorramabad – URBiNAT harnessed the power of community engagement, and the potential of Nature-Based Solutions, to co-create a more inclusive form urban living.

Aims, Concepts and Methodologies

At the heart of URBiNAT is the goal of co-creating healthier, more inclusive, and sustainable urban environments. To illustrate our vision, URBiNAT consortium members came together in the early stages of the project to produce this animated video which serves as an introduction to the project’s aims, key concepts, and methods.

Produced in several languages this video was used widely in our digital media communication strategy. Its deployment across various online platforms helped in foster engagement and spreading awareness about our shared vision of a healthier, greener urban future with nature-based solutions.

Porto 🇵🇹

As an URBiNAT frontrunner city, Porto held numerous activities designed to raise awareness about the project and actively engage the citizens of the main intervention ares, the district of Campanhã, in co-creation processes.

Many events were documented and recorded offering a glimpse into the city’s journey of urban transformation.

URBiNAT – Vamos criar juntos! / Let’s co-create together! District of Campanhã, Porto

In 2019, public events held in Porto to kick-start the co-creation of a URBiNAT Healthy Corridor were captured in this video, produced by our scientific partners at the University of Coimbra. The video highlights the collaborative ethos at the heart of the URBiNAT. It features some of the senior city planners and influential politicians, whose insights, leadership, and commitment have contributed to its success.

But it also shows how events and activities were designed to captivate the imaginations of the youth and even the youngest in society. Their voices, dreams, and aspirations played a crucial role in shaping the Healthy Corridor. The video attempts to show the vibrant hopes of Porto’s next generation, all converging towards a sustainable and inclusive urban vision.
