  • Natural playgrounds of Poznan

    In his book "The Last Child of the Forest", Richard Louv defines the syndrome of deficit of contact with nature in children. He notes that children living in cities have limited access to free play in the bosom of nature, which has a negative impact on their psyche, ability to concentrate, motor coordination and physical condition. Natural playgrounds are the antidote to these issues.

  • Nextagri in a Nutshell

    Under the frame of the “Milan Food policy” and the policy strategy called “Circular Milan”, the legacy of OpenAgri post-UIA consists in an innovation hub serving a bigger part of the agricultural park, with a strong focus on the waste-water sector, understood as the activities related to treatment, and valorisation and reuse of wastewater of any origin (municipal, industrial, or agricultural).

    NextAgri is the mechanism to transfer the practice to 3 European cities: Vila Nova de Gaia in Portugal, Stara Zagora in Bulgary and Almere in the Netherlands
