The project contributes to a sustainable development of a prosperous Baltic Sea region by developing a teaching and training course on sustainable urban stormwater management and related ecosystem services. The course will bring together students, decision makers, planners and other professionals for a multi-actor, mutual learning programme. The course will be embedded and disseminated through the Baltic University Programme to reach stakeholders from the entire Baltic Sea region. Through its multi-actor approach and active knowledge and experience exchange across the Baltic Sea region, the project will foster macro-regional cooperation and developments.
