Projects

Climate-4-CAST aims to assist local public authorities in their climate neutrality and integration of climate actions into urban governance processes. The project accelerates cities' climate actions and improves policy implementation for climate neutrality by equipping local public administrators with an open source decision support tool that helps visualize individual measures' emmissions impacts and cost-benefit analysis of the measures' performance against city goals.

The EMPEREST project supports local authorities, service providers and policy-making community by strengthening the sustainable water management cycle. The holistic approach to the elimination of PFAS and other persistent organic pollutants incorporates regional strategies for monitoring and assessment, technological advances in wastewater treatment, risk management assessment for cities, and training materials for water experts.

The ZeroPFAS II project is about minimizing the spread of PFAS in the Baltic Sea. It focuses on sharing and spreading information on these toxic substances among stakeholders in the region.

The cooperation between UBC and CDP started in the beginning of 2017 with a Memorandum of Understanding signed in the autumn of 2016. Since 2017, the Baltic Sea Region cities have become the forerunners in environmental reporting and in 2020 became the largest participating area in CDP reporting.

CASCADE aimed to improve the capacity to understand, assess, and treat current and future climate change related risks on the local level, focusing on the particular in Baltic Sea Region (BSR) conditions.

Disseminating lifelong learning to the water sector in Belarus.

The initiative Urban Climate Change Adaptation in the Baltic Sea Region was a one-year project providing opportunities for capacity building, training and applying the skills to existing situations in the adaptation to climate change in the cities of the region. The project focused on establishing connections between climate change and sustainable development of urban areas.

IWAMA project’s approach to improving resource efficiency in wastewater management in the Baltic Sea Region concentrated on capacity development of the WWT operators and implementation of the pilot investments which result in reduced nutrient inflows to the Baltic Sea. IWAMA application was a main outcome of the BSR IWAMA Seed project work, successfully submitted for funding from the Baltic Sea Region Interreg Programme 2014-2020.

Improving urban planning by developing integrated and multifunctional storm water management in the Central Baltic cities.

Exchange of experiences and launching the development of Belarusian lifelong-learning concept for wastewater management sector and so support e.g. the capacity and competence building and sustainability of the investments on new technology.

Developing a main project concept that would address the main means of supporting municipal WWTPs in reaching lower nutrient loading in discharges: structured lifelong learning, more resource-efficient operation and improved municipal sludge management.
