Flash floods, droughts, and heavy rains: Climate extremes are primarily experienced through water. But what do changes in the water cycle mean for Europe’s cities? What are the key angles of the topic urban water resilience, which tools are out there to address the coming changes and what are their limitations?

Join this Webinar and learn from scientists and practitioners about water and nature-based solutions, the role of technology and what an increase in climate extremes means for insurance. 

This Urban Lunch Talk is part of a webinar series to discuss and synthesise cross-cutting research and innovation, with diverse stakeholders across Europe and beyond.

RUSTICA - Converting organic residues into bio-based fertiliser products

The RUSTICA project obtained funding under Horizon 2020, more in particular under the topic ‘Closing nutrient cycles’.  RUSTICA focuses on demonstration and implementation of circular bio-based nutrient valorisation chains, focusing on waste from the fruit and vegetable agro-food system. The project kicked off in 2021 and will run until 2024. It will use a strong multi-actor approach to co-create both socio-economic and technological knowledge in four case study regions in Europe and one in Colombia. The Flanders-based company DRANCO is one of the project partners and acts as technical project manager for the entire project. DRANCO participates in the project to develop its own technologies, to network and to help make the transition to a more circular based economy.
