Project objective: To improve environmental managment of functional urban areas to make them more livable places.
ReSites – Environmental Rehabilitation of brownfield Sites in Central Europe
Project duration: 36 months (01.06.2016. – 31.05.2019.)
About the project: ReSites seeks to improve the environmental managment of unused or underused industrial areas through the definition of strategies & tools based on sustainable integrated approach to make involved Functional urban areas (FUAs) cleaner, healthier and more livable places. Thanks to the project, project partners will bring about a shared & enhanced knowledge on integrated environmental management of brownfields, reinforce capacities of the public sector to plan and carry out brownfield regeneration and produce well-defined sustainability measures and tools to ensure viability and effectiveness of environmental planning. The ReSites tool is planned as a site information system for online collaboration of the public authorities concerned with brownfield rehabilitation.
