Reconnecting People, Place & Nature | Urban Ecosystem Services in Action | River Cities Webinar

How can nature become a core infrastructure of our cities? In this River Cities Lunch Session, we explore how urban ecosystem services—cooling, CO₂ capture, health, and ecological engineering—can transform the way we design and inhabit urban spaces. On 23 February, architect and researcher Eva Stache (TU Delft) and urban sociologist and regenerative placemaking expert Lia Ghilardi came together to discuss how ecological intelligence and cultural strategy must work hand in hand to create resilient, regenerative cities. 🌿 What you’ll learn in this webinar: Why nature is not an “add-on” but the engine of urban systems How vegetation functions as a climate-adaptive building material The role of urban cooling and carbon sequestration in future-proof cities What beavers can teach us about regenerative design Why cultural sustainability is essential for implementing ecosystem services How to bridge the gap between scientific evidence and community action This session moves beyond conventional sustainability approaches and presents a systemic vision of regenerative urbanism—where environmental performance, social meaning, and spatial design are deeply interconnected. If you work in architecture, urban planning, sustainability, cultural development, or policy-making, this conversation offers practical insights and conceptual frameworks for rethinking urban futures. 👉 Watch the full session and join the conversation on how to reconnect people, place, and nature. #RiverCities #UrbanDesign #EcosystemServices #RegenerativeCities #ClimateAdaptation #SustainableCities #Placemaking #UrbanInnovation
