Description:
The EU Green Infrastructure Strategy adopted in May 2013 foresees a number of actions to be carried out under the lead of the European Commission in the following years. They include, for example, integrating green infrastructure (GI) into key policy areas, improving the knowledge base and encouraging innovation in relation to GI, and assessing opportunities for developing a trans-European GI network (TEN-G).
The service contract reported on in this Final Report aimed at supporting the implementation of these actions, in particular actions which require new knowledge. This report presents the outputs of the five distinct tasks conducted during this service contract, namely:
- Task 1: Ensuring a more effective promotion of GI at all relevant levels;
- Task 2: Capacity building, training, education for GI;
- Task 3: Improving information exchange mechanisms;
- Task 4: Assessing technical standards and innovation possibilities;
- Task 5: Assessing costs and benefits of TEN-G
