Abstract

GAIA project has been financed with EU LIFE+2008 call. The purpose of the project is to build up a public-private partnership between the Municipality of Bologna and local businesses in order to finance the realization of new green urban areas. This will actively contribute to Bologna’s adaptation strategy by tackling the heat island effects and by creating a more resilient town. New green areas will also contribute to sequestrate carbon dioxide emissions.
