Dear readers,
Making cities more crisis-proof, eco-friendly and socially responsible - this is how the reviews and insight articles in this newsletter issue can be summed up: the Lebanese municipality of Ras El-Matin preserves Beirut's "green lungs" through ecotourism projects while boosting the local economy. Municipalities in the QuattroPole network of cities effectively support each other in times of crisis. Our latest good practices demonstrate how the metropolises of Bangkok and Vienna combine climate-friendly and social approaches in their urban development strategies.
We kicked off this year's Urban October 2022@GIZ programme with a variety of formats and topics. You are very welcome to participate until 2 November. We also cordially invite our community of experts to share their experiences in two Connective Cities events: "Construction Waste Management in Crisis Areas" and "Rainwater and Heavy Rainwater Management in Water-Sensitive Urban Planning".
Get inspired!
Your Connective Cities Team
