From Strategy to Implementation: How Does Poznań Manage Water in Practice?

Poznań, like many cities, faces challenges related to intense rainfall, periods of drought, and ongoing urbanisation. In response, the city has developed an approach to managing these issues that combines strategic objectives with the consistent implementation of practical solutions.

The presentation illustrates the transition from strategies and planning documents to the delivery of concrete actions in urban space. It will discuss the key principles of the city’s stormwater policy, the role of blue-green infrastructure, retention, and nature-based solutions.
