A Continent Converges: The European Seagrass Recommendations Mark a Turning Point

For years, seagrass restoration has been fragmented across borders, disciplines, and sectors. Scientists, practitioners, authorities, and businesses operated in isolation, their efforts only rarely coordinated beyond regional boundaries. Now, Europe unites behind a comprehensive policy document presenting eight science-backed recommendations for the future of seagrass restoration in Europe.  In February 2026 on the Dutch island […]

One Health in cities: what we’ve learned (and what comes next)

Written by Sofia Aivalioti for URBACT One Health is not new, but its implementation in planning and designing cities is both innovative and necessary. Most cities promote health through some often-disconnected angles: by mitigating adverse impacts of climate change, tackling biodiversity loss, or designing public space for active and healthy mobility. However, coordinated actions that […]

Human-centric urban design and active mobility create liveable cities

Written by Jamie Coles Imagine a city. What do you see? Tower blocks, perhaps, cutting through the sky. Perhaps a grid of tarmac—streets choked with the droning of car traffic.
