About the project
The project obtained co-financing in the call for proposals: The implementation of green and blue infrastructure in cities under the Environment, Energy and Climate Change Programme, in the area of climate change mitigation and adaptation.
The project is financed in 85% from the funds of the Environment, Energy and Climate Change Programme, of which 85% comes from the Financial Mechanism of the European Economic Area (EEA FM) and 15% from the state budget.
The aim of the project is to increase the town's resilience and adaptation to negative phenomena resulting from climate change. Currently, the Czempin Municipality is facing decreasing precipitation as well as high insolation and temperatures above 25 C, lasting up to several weeks, causing droughts.

An RES will be installed on the primary school and road lighting will be upgraded in the community. There will also be flower meadows and numerous plantings of trees, shrubs, roadside greenery.
In addition to activities implementing the solutions, a conference on urban climate change and an exhibition on climate issues will be organised. An environmental rally will be organised - in the footsteps of the project.
