Cities across Europe are facing increasingly complex risks, from climate impacts and extreme weather events to economic uncertainty, demographic change, and geopolitical disruptions. Building resilience is no longer a future ambition, but a present-day necessity.

Now your contribution is needed: In an explicit workshop we want to talk about the barriers and potentials for using project results after a project has ended and how these results can be visible and accessible. What technical obstacles do you phase when using project results and how do you think these barriers can be overcome? How can key Stakeholders access the project results, without being part of a project group?

Now your contribution is needed: In an explicit workshop we want to talk about the barriers and potentials for using project results after a project has ended and what is important to overcome these obstacles. What thoughts do you have, which stakeholders should be involved and how can energy transition project results be implemented into your everyday work life? How can good governance improve the usability and visibility of project results? 

How Local Leaders Turn Climate Ambition into Action The Climate Budget Summit will bring together transformative trends from the city networks Union of the Baltic Cities and Eurocities, and local Mayors, decision-makers and practitioners driving the climate neutrality forward in their cities. With the moderation by HafenCity University Hamburg, we will link strategy, practice and research to examine how climate budgeting can support local climate ambitions!

When all other hurdles on the path towards climate neutrality are solved, one common bottleneck often remains – urban mobility. How to decarbonise this sector? What measures and strategic decisions to take? And how to comprehensively calculate the impact of alternative approaches? The September webinar issue looks right into this matter.

For every interested BSR city: best practices and hands-on application of the tool you can use to calculate your city's climate scenarios! Together with peers from across the Baltic Sea Region, you will exchange practical experiences in climate budgeting, explore real city use cases, and work directly with the open CADS (Climate Action Decision Support) Tool for climate scenario calculations. Together with peers from across the Baltic Sea Region, you will:

Climate impacts, demographic change and growing security pressures are already affecting us and our communities. The tides are shifting, and so must we. The Forum offers a timely space to exchange experience, align priorities and strengthen cooperation across borders on resilience – how to withstand disruption, adapt and continue to function well when challenges occur, and bounce back better.

This is the Module 2 of the Climate budget training course organised by UBC Sustainable Cities Commission together with the experts within the Climate-4-CAST project. Welcome to join this: participation is free!

The UBC TALKS webinar about climate budget concept and tools on 2 December 2025 at 9.30–11.00 CET / 10.30–12.00 EET will host international experts ready to share best practices in launching climate budgets in cities, introduce the tools for comprehensive calculations, and to invite everyone to the intensive training course starting in the autumn 2025 and finishing with the Climate Budget Summit in 2026! Don't miss the chance to improve your knowledge, and bring other relevant city departments on board.

As cities across Europe and the Baltic Sea Region face increasing climate risks, the need for robust and nature-inclusive urban strategies has never been more urgent. This year's meeting aims to catalyse action by providing a unique platform for municipal leaders, experts, planners, and practitioners to collaborate on building cities that are not only resilient to climate change but also rich in biodiversity and nature.

Together with Copenhagen Malmö Port (CMP), World Maritime University (WMU), and Union of the Baltic Cities (UBC) - the City of Malmö is hosting a pivotal conference on Future-proofing Our Port Cities, taking place 30 September – 1 October 2025. The conference brings together decision-makers, representatives from business, academia and the public sector from across Europe to jointly discuss future strategies for Europe's coastal and port cities in light of climate change.
