During the presentation, the results achieved through the activities carried out by the NetZeRoCities Center were shared, with a focus on the proposed solutions supporting the transition of smart cities toward climate neutrality. The intervention emphasized the role of participatory governance and the importance of engaging local communities in identifying and scaling innovative, sustainable solutions tailored to real needs at the local level.
The event provided a valuable platform for promoting the European Mission of achieving 100 climate-neutral and smart cities by 2030, and for strengthening collaboration between authorities, experts, and citizens in the process of adapting to climate change.
