New EU insights on climate resilience strongly echo RESt4GREEN’s mission! 🌿

The European Union has recently published new insights on how communities across Europe are taking action to build resilience against climate-related challenges. The report highlights the top three measures local communities are prioritizing, all of which strongly align with the mission and activities of the RESt4GREEN project.

🟩 49% focus on reducing energy consumption, especially in public buildings
🟩 41% boost urban greening and nature-based solutions
🟩 34% take action to reduce waste and environmental impact

These findings show a clear shift towards energy efficiency, greener public spaces, and climate-aware communities — the same pillars driving our six pilot projects, solar-powered outdoor areas, training actions, and digital tools across the Mediterranean.

🌍 RESt4GREEN is proud to contribute to these EU-backed priorities, helping build more resilient and sustainable public spaces.

Happy ! 🌎

Today we celebrate our shared Mediterranean identity — its culture, diversity, and the cooperation that unites us across borders. This year is especially meaningful, as we mark 30 years since the launch of the Barcelona Process, a historic milestone that laid the foundation for Euro-Mediterranean cooperation in dialogue, peace, and sustainable development.

At RESt4GREEN, we are proud to contribute to a greener, more resilient Mediterranean through energy efficiency and renewable solutions.
