The Urban Agenda for the EU Partnership on Greening Cities is tackling some of the most pressing issues cities face in expanding green infrastructure, including how to secure innovative funding models. We are pleased to invite you to our upcoming public webinar, organized by the City of Ostrava, to explore the role of Cost-Benefit Analysis (CBA) in Public-Private Partnerships (PPPs) and other financing tools that support green infrastructure development.
