Guimarães hosts Eurocities environmental forum from 3 to 6 November as European Green Capital

Guimarães will host the Eurocities network's main annual meeting on urban environmental policy from 3 to 6 November, under the theme "One Planet City". Officials, municipal technicians and European experts will exchange solutions on climate action, the circular economy, energy, green spaces and biodiversity, as part of the city's European Green Capital programme. The opening session takes place on 3 November, and the city will present a declaration urging municipalities worldwide to step up climate action around education, science, social justice, the green economy and culture. Delegates will also visit local projects, including a biocultural eco-corridor, and attend workshops and thematic working groups on air quality, noise, waste and energy efficiency.
