Warsaw is tackling the growing challenge of the urban heat island effect, intensified by dense development and limited green infrastructure. This issue falls within the scope of building a climate resilient city. To respond, we are implementing “The New Centre of Warsaw”, a major revitalization project transforming a fragmented central area into a greener, more inclusive, and adaptive public space.
Beyond physical transformation, we recognize that climate resilience requires collaboration across sectors. We’re developing models to engage both public and private stakeholders in co-creating and financing nature-based solutions and other adaptive measures. This approach aims not only to reduce climate risks but also to strengthen local ownership and long-term sustainability.
