ICLEI Europe is an associate partner for the EU Green Week (21-25 May), organised by the European Commission (DG Environment). During the opening event in Utrecht (The Netherlands), ICLEI will organise two sessions as part of the plenary programme: a European Mayor’s roundtable on nature-based solutions and a Young Councillors’ Debate on the future of green cities. ICLEI’s activities at the EU Green Week Opening Event are taking place under the umbrella of the EU Horizon 2020 NATURVATION project, which seeks to contribute to realising the potential of nature-based solutions for responding to urban sustainability challenges by working with communities and stakeholders.

ICLEI will also play an active role in the Brussels events from 22 until 24 May, speaking on topics such as sustainable public procurement, sustainable urban mobility plans (SUMPs), green city transition and sustainable urban water planning. During the week, ICLEI will manage an interactive stand related to nature based-solutions and our 2018 Transformative Action Award.
