The UFZ

The Helmholtz Centre for Environmental Research (UFZ) with its 1,100 employees has gained an excellent reputation as an international competence centre for environmental sciences.

The UT-UBGI project aims at a sustainable urban transformation through blue-green infrastructure and integrates different scientific disciplines and practice partners in a transdisciplinary approach. The aim is to quantify the effect of blue-green infrastructures on the functionality of urban greenery and its cooling potential. Results will be transferred to applicable planning solutions for cities and municipalities via spatial-economic infrastructure planning and the analysis of conflicts and narratives. The innovation of the project lies in the interdisciplinary integration of methods, the partnership with German model cities and the synthesis of the results to provide actionable insights for cities and municipalities in Germany.
