Connecting Nature Enterprise Summit Poznan 2021
As the world looks to build back better after the pandemic, innovators are leading to the way towards sustainable business models inspired by nature. That's why the city of Poznan is hosting the Connecting Nature Enterprise Summit, an online event bringing together mayors, business leaders and policymakers from across Europe, with the support of the European Commission. The summit will explore the challenges and opportunities of embracing nature-based solutions. Hosted on a virtual platform with panel discussions, presentations, workshops, capacity building sessions and plenty of opportunity to connect with other participants. Get inspired, naturally! https://connectingnature.eu/connecting-nature-enterprise-summit-pozna%C5%84-2021-0
We are pleased to announce that the 11th City Health 2021 conference will take place 29-30 November in Warsaw, Poland. Hopes, Fears and Opportunities - What has the pandemic taught us about meeting the health needs of vulnerable populations? What have we learnt about supporting vulnerable populations during a period of crisis? Since the Pandemic began we have seen examples of what can be achieved when political will and resources are combined. There have also been cases where a failure by government or agencies to respond has resulted in avoidable tragedies. As attention shifts to focussing on the economic recovery what can be done to help those vulnerable groups who are at risk of being left even further behind. What lessons can we draw from recent experience? Where are the opportunities to transform lives and communities? What new risks do these groups face? Certainly, there is no shortage of topics or learning to share relating to the last year and the very clear challenges ahead of us. The importance of more effective collaboration, maximisation of available resources and improved public engagement are all evident. We will be in touch soon regarding themes and abstracts for the conference. Registration will open early in the summer. Due to the ongoing Covid situation the travel situation remains dynamic, and this may prevent some people from participating live. For that reason we will also be streaming the event, to ensure that nobody misses out and to maximise participation. https://cityhealthinternational.org/conferences/chi2021

Reimagining City Transformation: Cities 4.0 online
Online | September 21-22, 2021 Cities around the world are reimagining the future, using the pandemic as an opportunity to come up with urban solutions that will make life better and more prepared for crisis. They are aspiring to create greener spaces in their urban areas, improve connectivity, reduce congestion, focus on sustainability, and be more adaptive and smarter with new technology and materials. As people have been forced to keep inside, out of schools and workplaces, as well as away from one another, new challenges have been presented. Life may not return to the way it once was. Cities will need to adapt to a new reality and there are no universal solutions. The hosting of the fourth edition of Cities 4.0 will once again provide the governments, municipalities, urban planners, developers, urban futurists, solution providers and innovators an interactive platform to converge and discuss the methods and best practices to re-imagine our fundamental relationship with the cities, and the opportunities to work outside their normal methods. http://www.cities4pointzero.com/
