The euPOLIS project aims to replace or combine the traditional costly engineering systems built to protect the environment with natural systems to create resilient urban ecosystems at lower Life-Cycle Costs and simultaneously enhance public health and wellbeing. To addresses critical challenges such as low environmental quality, fragmentation and low biodiversity in public spaces, water-stressed resources the project introduces a structured approach to activate the hidden resources and services of existing Natural and Engineered urban systems, and it regenerates and rehabilitates urban ecosystems. The euPOLIS' detailed objectives are to improve urban resilience through interventions of proper urban planning matrices and co-create livable, inclusive urban spaces by systematically implementing innovative participatory tools, with particular attention to gender, age and disability perspectives within the process. The experts of the euPOLIS team will map the critical challenges that the demo cities encounter, provide holistic solutions and measure their positive impact on the quality of the lives of the citizens: their overall wellbeing, and physical, mental, and emotional health.
