KWR Water Research Institute / Copernicus Institute Utrecht University
Roma Tre University has set up a multidisciplinary course for all students on UN 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development to provide high-level training to shape a more sustainable future.
The City Blueprint® Approach is a diagnosis tool and consists of three complementary frameworks. The main challenges of cities are assessed with the Trends and Pressures Framework (TPF). How cities are managing their water cycle is done with the City Blueprint Framework (CBF). Where cities can improve their water governance is done with the Governance Capacity Framework (GCF).
An integrated assessment, when done by local students provides an important message to managers and political leaders to take further actions.
