Foto natječaj Cvjetni vrtovi: Sada se pridružite i pobijedite!

Bad Homburg vor der Höhe, Deutschland - The scent of flowering gardens is in the air, and this is no coincidence. For the third time, the regional association, together with Gartenrheinmain, launched a photo competition under the title "Flowering Gardens". The initiative aims to support exemplary green space projects for climate adaptation and promoting biodiversity. Ne samo općine, već i privatni pojedinci, klupski i zajednički vrtovi, kao i vrtovi za podučavanje i okoliš. The deadline is July 31, 2025, so nothing like gardening! The participants may submit a maximum of three photos with image titles and a short project description. A specialist jury evaluates the submissions based on criteria such as planting, structure and effect. The best contributions are rewarded with vouchers for regional nurseries and sustainable shops. In addition, reports on the winners in the online media of the regional association and the cultural region of Frankfurtrheinmain. Further details can be found at here

But that's not all! The “Gardens for Biodiversity” project goes hand in hand with the efforts to adapt to climate. Promiče dizajn vrtova, balkona i zelenih površina koji štedi resurse kako bi povećao biološku raznolikost i bolje se pripremio protiv posljedica klimatskih promjena. U suradnji sa sedam partnera u projektu i podršci pet općina, 40 kandidata godišnje se bira za vrtno natjecanje u kojem sudionici dobivaju stručna izvješća o svojim vrtovima. In the coming years, the focus will be on the courtyards, urban gardens and young, newly created gardens. Ten gardens are then awarded every year, with the award ceremony taking place in September. The project runs until December 31, 2025 and is funded by Interreg Oberrhein, an exciting project for all garden lovers! More information is available on the page of the Pfälzerwalds .

for a climate -conscious urban design

In the past few decades, it has been shown that cities are particularly heating up on hot summer days. This development is referred to as an urban heating effect, caused by sealed areas and lack of vegetation. In order to counteract this, innovative solutions are required. Prema WHO -u, bilo je oko 166 000 smrti povezanih s toplinom u svijetu između 1998. i 2017. godine. Fraunhofer IBP podržava općine u planiranju i provođenju urbanog dizajna prilagođenog klimi. The institute offers research on climate compensation and develops tools for evidence -based planning. This also includes the simulation of urban climate in order to test the effects of various adjustment measures. Because clear thing: the more green in the city, the better for the microclimate and the quality of life of the citizens.

Opsežna kombinacija mjera konkurencije, promocije projekata i urbanog planiranja jasno pokazuje da Hessenu prethodi dobar primjer. The connection from nature and urban life harbors enormous potential to increase the quality of life and reduce the risk of heat waves. Registracija za projekte i natjecanja ne nudi samo način sudjelovanja, već i priliku da postanete kreativni i da daju aktivni doprinos klimatskoj zaštiti. In this sense - on the gardens!
