The results of the local commitment to sustainability
In today's world, sustainability is undeniably a priority for city governance. Developed cities are smart and sustainable, where water management and reuse are essential to reduce flood risks and improve water and energy efficiency. Cascais has been recognised at Venice Climate Week for its focus on prevention and collaboration with local institutions. Key initiatives include reducing water consumption in schools and the renaturalisation of the Sassoeiros stream, which mitigates flood risks while providing 14 hectares of public green space for residents. These efforts demonstrate that investing in sustainability creates smarter, more efficient cities designed for people.
