At the Faculty of Civil Engineering, 1-2 July 2024, 12th and last General Assembly of RECONECT was held. During the two-day work were presented the overall progress of the project, key results, conclusion, finalization and implementation of research activities, realized impacts at the local and national level during the last 6 years, as well as future impacts and implementation of project results in the field of application of nature based solutions in flood protection, drought, landslides and other hydrometeorological risks.

Congratulations!

International conference "Nature-Based Solutions for Water Security and Climate Adaptation" will be held on 3-5 July 2024, at the Metropol Hotel, Bulevar Kralja Aleksandra 69.

There is growing evidence that traditional interventions for the reduction of hydro-meteorological risks (e.g., floods, droughts, heatwaves, storms, coastal storm surges, tropical cyclones, landslides, wildfires) have focused on grey infrastructure measures which are often limited in their approach and effects. A new response towards disaster risk reduction, water security, and resilience to climate change, which has a potential to be more effective and sustainable than traditional measures, is currently passing under the name of Nature-Based Solutions (NBS).

This conference aims to bring together academic communities and practitioners to exchange information, experiences and research results on a variety of aspects concerning Nature-Based Solutions for Water Security and Climate Adaptation.

The Conference is organised by RECONECT network, a project financed by the European Commission (www.reconect.eu). The Conference is also supported by the International Water Association (IWA) and International Association for Hydro-Environment Engineering and Research (IAHR).
