Stay tuned! #OceanDecadeConference in #Barcelona highlights the importance of the #role of #cities to protect the #ocean and adapt to global change, for the benefit of their inhabitants and local stakeholders. #UNHabitat will speak on Oceans and the #NewUrbanAgenda, highlighting the example of the #GoBleu project at the coast of #Kenya. Event: Cities with the Ocean – Ocean science for the sustainable development of coastal cities and ports 14.30-16.30 (CEST) | Sala d’Actes Ramon Margalef, Institut de Ciències del Mar (Conference-registered participants only) The Satellite Event will highlight the deep connection between coastal cities and the ocean, and how coastal cities and ports can use ocean science to take action to protect the ocean and adapt to global change, for the benefit of their inhabitants and local stakeholders. The event will kick-start the new “Cities with the Ocean” #platform within the Ocean Decade to facilitate global collaboration in this domain. Built as a dialogue between coastal cities, ports and ocean science, the event will connect various initiatives around the world to promote a strong and sustainable connection between coastal cities and the ocean, catalyze synergies and innovation, share experience and discuss the future, inspire and empower cities and stakeholders. #SDGs #NewUrbanAgenda #SDG11 #SDG14 #SDG13 #landseaplanning #blueeconomy #urbanwaterresilience #zerowaste #communities #municipalities #multilevel #oceanscience #urbanplanning #localfinance #climateadaptation #GoBleu UN-Habitat (United Nations Human Settlements Programme)United Nations UNESCO Ocean Florian Lux OUMAR SYLLASalvatore Fundaró Jane Muriuki Joy Mutai

It was from the top of Mount Egaleo (aka Aigaleo) that the Persian king Xerxes witnessed his fleet destroyed during the Battle of Salamis in an event that helped shape the future of Europe. Now the western Athenian Municipality of Egaleo is helping shape the future of the airspace that connects us all through its contribution to the ImAFUSA project. In our latest blog post, Dr. Eirini Karakasidou, Project Manager and a Senior Researcher at the Municipality of Egaleo, writes about why the municipality has embraced this initiative.

The old adage claims that all roads lead to Rome, and now, so too does the UNESCO World Heritage List. At the latest annual meeting of the World Heritage Committee, Italy's Via Appia (or ‘Appian Way’) joined 23 other cultural and natural sites on the UNESCO World Heritage List. The famous Roman road is not only historically and culturally significant, but it marks a unique milestone for Italy, making it the 60th World Heritage for the country— the most of any nation. The road was originally conceived of as a military necessity for the Roman army around 312 BCE during the mid-Republican period when Roman expansionism and conquest was spreading into the furthest reaches of Italy. Running more than 800 kilometers from the heart of Rome to Brundisium (modern-day Brindisi) in the heel of the Italian peninsula, the Via Appia is not only the oldest Roman road, but it is also considered the most important. As a military route, the road enabled the swift and massive scale of the Roman army as it conquered southern Italy, improving the movement of troops and supplies, but also of critical information to and from Rome. In the years after conquest, the Via Appia facilitated a heightened level of connections between cities and settlements previously unseen on such a scale in Italy. Other intercity roads are known to have existed in Etruria— the territory of the Etruscans north of Rome— however, none compared to the impressive length and engineering mastery that the Romans had achieved with the Via Appia. https://lnkd.in/duPK3uPN
