As European cities navigate the impacts of climate transition, urban environments face unprecedented challenges. To meet these challenges head-on, the Unite!Widening project invites thinkers, creators, and innovators from across Europe to participate in the Tri-City Hackathon: Biotechnology & Health Innovation for Healthier, More Liveable and Resilient Cities.
