The assembly kicked off with a compelling study visit to the project's pilots at the Alvalade district, situated in the heart of Lisbon. Participants had the opportunity to witness firsthand the innovative solutions being implemented and the positive impact on the local community.

 

A tapestry of ideas and progress

 

During the General Assembly, cities took the main stage, where each of them presented their implementation status, results from the needs analysis and highlighted barriers faced during different phases of the project.

Divided into four working groups—Climate Adaptive Cities, Climate Neutral Cities, Inclusive Cities, and Smart City Integrated Solutions—the assembly presented a spectrum of tools available to address the diverse challenges faced by urban environments.
