Consortium

The AQUALive consortium consists of six research institutions:

  • University of Antwerp, Ecosphere research group and Institute for Environment and Sustainable Development (Antwerp, Belgium)
  •  University of Lisbon, Sciences faculty (Lisbon, Portugal)
  • University of Architecture, Civil Engineering and Geodesy (UACG) (Sofia, Bulgaria)
  • Università di Firenze (UNIFI) (Florence, Italy)
  • Institute of Urban and Regional Development (IRMiR) (Krakow, Poland)
  • Uniwersytet Lodzki (Lodz, Poland)
  • Istanbul Technical University (ITU) (Istanbul, Turkey)
  • Sampas (SME) (Istanbul, Turkey)

In this research, we think it is crucial to involve local stakeholders in order to guarantee, not only the short-term impact created during the duration of the project, but also the impact beyond the time horizon of the project.  The following municipalities have been included in the consortium in order to create long-term relations for the further development and implementation of floodable parks in the selected case-studies.

  • Antwerp municipality (Antwerp, Belgium)
  • Setúbal  municipality (Setúbal, Portugal)
  • Sofia municipality (Sofia, Bulgaria)
  • Prato municipality (Prato, Italy)
  • Krakow municipality (Krakow, Poland)
  • Antalya municipality (Antalya, Turkey)
