Med-IREN

Mediterranean critical infrastructure resilience engineering with NbS. Grant agreement ID: 101157707

  • Project

OBJECTIVE 

Med-IREN is leading the charge in demonstrating how NbS can climate-proof critical infrastructure across pivotal sectors, bolstering climate risk management and ensuring business continuity in the face of extreme climate change. Focused on five Mediterranean regions, the project is showcasing innovative solutions to mitigate climate hazards, with plans to replicate successes across four additional EU regions, reinforcing the EU’s global leadership in infrastructure climate resilience. 

KEY ACHIEVEMENTS 

Med-IREN is pioneering a state-of-the-art digital decision-making tool that integrates data from diverse sources, facilitating advanced visualisation and resilience assessment throughout the infrastructure and NbS lifecycle. The project is set to highlight critical enabling conditions such as participatory governance, citizen engagement, innovative financing mechanisms, and capacity-building initiatives. By fostering regional transformation and replication across the Mediterranean, Black Sea, and Boreal regions, Med-IREN aims to set a precedent for sustainable infrastructure resilience strategies across Europe and beyond.
