We are pleased to announce that the first workshop of the GreenQual international research project has been held in Krakow!

The GreenQual project aims to improve the microclimate of our cities by increasing green spaces, measuring and modelling the positive effects that can be achieved, which will help to fight the urban heat island effect, among other things!

In addition to the Ybl team from Óbuda University, our partners from the University of Agriculture in Krakow, F4STER Zrt. and the University of Osaka participated in the event.

The professional programme not only included exciting presentations, inspiring discussions and joint planning, but also site visits, which was an important step in advancing the selection of research targets. It also allowed us to take the practical groundwork for the project to a new level.

Thank you to all participants for their active involvement and commitment! We believe that through the power of collaboration we can make real progress in sustainability and environmental quality.

GreenQual: Investigating the Role of Greenery to Improve Climate Resilience, Water, Soil and Air quality in Dense Urban Fabric  project is co-funded by the European Interest Group (EIG) Concert-Japan and the Hungarian NRDI program under the Nr. 2024-1.2.2-ERA_NET-2024-00006.
