Nature Smart Cities on SDEWES 2019 in Dubrovnik

The University of Antwerp presented the preliminary results of a review paper on valuation tools for urban green infrastructure at SDEWES 2019 in Dubrovnik.

At the SDEWES (The International Centre for Sustainable Development of Energy, Water and Environment Systems) 2019 scientific conference in Dubrovnik, the University of Antwerp presented the preliminary results of a review paper on valuation tools for urban green infrastructure. The objective of this review was to assess the suitability of existing tools, and their potential role in the valuation phase of the business model. At the conference, we were able to spread the findings of this Nature Smart Cities review, as well as promote the idea of developing business models for green infrastructure in general. Moreover, through receiving feedback and peer-review from field-level experts, the applicability of the work and the eventual business model will be improved.
