This project marks the first implementation of EVAPO+ transpiring green walls and the demonstration of innovative, multifunctional planted retention and infiltration basins for sustainable stormwater management. Through targeted empowerment of the community, climate change adaptation measures are being implemented on public, semi-public, and private properties. In collaboration with other municipalities, the lessons learned from Strasshof will be analyzed and shared, resulting in a regional network called “Climate-Resilient Small Towns and Municipalities” and a step-by-step guide for climate-resilient municipalities. A steering committee is also promoting national and international exchange. Strasshof is intended to serve as a model for climate-resilient communities, raising awareness and initiating climate change adaptation processes in other communities.
