Spain, France, Italy, Denmark, Poland, Czech Republic, Austria, Serbia, Albania, Egypt, Colombia, China
What we are doing
NICE utilises nature-based solutions to transform concrete jungles. NICE will analyse, test, implement, compare and monitor nature-based solutions to mitigate water pollution and runoff to create a circular urban water system.
What we are achieving
ICLEI will lead the outreach strategy of the project, being in charge of dissemination and communication of project results, as well as clustering with other projects and initiatives. ICLEI as lead actor in the NBS policy arena in Europe and globally will ensure that NICE reaches all stakeholders. Tasks will include analysing current standards and proposing how to align the NICE’s innovative NBS pilots for improving the urban water cycle with the IUCN Global Standard for NBS; contributing to the exploitation strategy and clustering activities with other ongoing & future NBS projects as well as organising capacity building events.
