In Venice, water is not merely a feature of the landscape. It defines the way people live, move, and envision the future. The city’s existence has always depended on a careful balance, where resilience and vulnerability coexist.
Here, the climate crisis is neither abstract nor distant. It is immediate, visible, and demands urgent attention.
This is the reason Venice Climate Week commences in this city, and why our collaboration with C40 Cities is both natural and imperative. Cities are not only at the forefront of climate challenges, but also laboratories for innovation, where solutions are developed, tested, and shared across communities.
From Venice, together with C40 Cities, we aim to demonstrate how cities, water, and communities can coexist in a changing world.
