This international network of stakeholders from Germany and the USA focusses on the topics of resilient infrastructure, nature conservation and renaturation, resource efficiency and community-based environmental policy.

During a walk through the Pleißenbach green corridor, Florian Etterer from the City of Chemnitz's Parks Department informed the participants about renaturalisation. Sarah Arnold from the City of Chemnitz's environmental department spoke about climate adaptation. The Pleißenbach green corridor serves as a positive example of nature conservation, urban climate improvement, river renaturalisation and the promotion of sustainable mobility.
