At Your Service is a project that stems from the #Climate-KIC Journey this past summer. Its aim was to focus on how #ecosystemservices can be be integrated into urban #envrionment, with the goal of reconnecting people to nature by greening the city.

In so doing, it aims to tackle issues facing the climate challenges facing the city, such as urban heat island effect and increased risk of flooding through #naturebasedsolutions. Besides, they work on a community-based concept where the community shall be a co-owner of the project. For this project, At Your Service uses an app and chooses the city of Rome to begin with.

In this episode, we meet the team which includes Nora Helal (Amsterdam), Darrelle Colleran (Dublin), Clara Baumhauer (Zurich), and Giordano Margaglio (Rome), whose backgrounds range from ecology and evolutionary biology to disaster risk management and climate change.

We also talk about the group formation, the different roles in the team, their visions, and experiences in the topics of sustainable development and the climate change.
