To this end, the City is collaborating with Ghent University, Hogeschool Gent, University of Antwerp and 2 private NGOs: Breekijzer vzw and Ghent Environmental Front.</span></p><h2><span lang="EN-GB">Two tracks</span></h2><p><span lang="EN-GB">The project ‘Rewild The City’ will work on two tracks: research and practice. Together with the partners, the City of Ghent will map where de-sealing can be done faster, how this should be done and what the thresholds are for this. This should lead to a guideline with a clear long-term strategy.</span></p><p><span lang="EN-GB">REWILD aims to enable de-sealing initiatives, but will also <strong>test solutions through pilot projects in 3 vulnerable neighbourhoods</strong>. This concerns Ledeberg and Sluizeken-Tolhuis-Ham, the third neighbourhood is still to be determined. The pilot projects will actively involve Ghent citizens and enterprises. The focus is not only on de-sealing and greening public space, but also private land. </span></p><p><span lang="EN-GB">Ultimately, the project will develop a <strong>strategy to reduce soil sealing</strong>, equip the city to implement new solutions and replicate its positive impact in other places.</span></p> </div> <div class="quote-wrapper"> <div class="quote"> <blockquote> <div class="content"> <p> Climate is changing, so Ghent is changing with it.
