RECONECT National Workshop:
“Nature-based Solutions for the mitigation of hydro-meteorological risks: applications and perspectives”
The Second Italian Workshop was organized by the cluster of the Italian partners such as GISIG, Parco di Portofino and University of Genoa. In addition, the workshop received the patronage by the Italian Society of Environmental Geology (SIGEA).
The Workshop was hosted and promoted by the Ligurian Regional Authority, having in the NbS a strong interest. The second Italian Workshop of RECONECT wanted to represent an opportunity for a meeting between the project partners and the stakeholders to share current experiences on NbS and the vision on the future for their application and promotion at national level.
The workshop was also an occasion to take stock of national policies on NbS and their current requirements for an effective implementation and discuss on how the RECONECT results and outcomes can influence and contribute to regional and national policies.
The participating speakers provided also an overview of techniques and technologies to implement and monitor NbS, as well as a status of training and skills needs.
The programme of the workshop was divided into three parts: the first part was an introduction to RECONECT project and to the achievements by the Portofino Demonstrator A in terms of risk mitigation and upscaling potential; the second one was dedicated to the presentations by the institutional stakeholders about their experiences on NbS policies and implementation. The final session was dedicated to a debate on how to exploit and capitalize the RECONECT results at national and regional level, to cope with current needs and trends of hydro-meteo risk mitigation.
