1st Opening Site Visit of the NatUR-W, 1st day

The first day focused on reviewing the site's challenges and key features from the project's first year and organizing further steps. Transfer Partners actively explored NatUR-W’s innovative solutions, discussing their specific roles and contributions to the project.

Participants had the opportunity to visit the project area, Barrios Altos, and explore the Nature-Based Solutions (NbS) implemented under NatUR-W, focusing on three key actions:

✅ Enhancing energy efficiency in three social housing units

✅ Renovating and converting the interior of the Old Prison (a Heritage of Cultural Interest) into a “Citizen university”

✅ Re-naturalizing an empty lot to create an Urban Forest, a new public green space

Later in the day, a workshop on NbS and the IUCN Global Standard provided participants with valuable insights into NbS and real-life case studies.

✨ A huge ‘thank you’ to Lorca City Council for the warm hospitality and interesting site visit tour!
