Overview
NATURE-DEMO is a project that develops nature-based solutions (NbS) for demonstrating climate-resilient critical infrastructure. The project covers critical sectors including transport and energy, and engages infrastructure owners, scientists, and public authorities. It includes demonstrator sites across Austria, Romania, Slovenia, Slovakia, and North Macedonia.

- Democritus University of Thrace (DUTH), one of the largest Universities in Greece, presents its role in the NATURE-DEMO project. By combining civil engineering and environmental sciences, it contributes to the development of Nature-based Solutions (NbS) to enhance infrastructure resilience to climate change and support sustainable regional development. 👉Follow our YouTube channel for more partner introductions. 🌍 More info at nature-demo.eu
- We are introducing Telespazio UK. Our partner is responsible for the development of advanced satellite-based products (Earth Observation) for monitoring the condition of critical infrastructure in the NATURE DEMO project. 👉 The company provides datasets and analyses focused on assessing the structural condition of infrastructure and its surrounding environment, supporting decision-making on the implementation of Nature-Based Solutions (NbS). ➡️ Telespazio UK is leading the key part of the project (Task 2.4) and
- Introducing the University of Rostock, bringing top expertise in sustainable infrastructure, digitalization, and AI‑driven digital twins. UROS leads WP5 and actively contributes to key activities in WP2, WP3, and WP7, helping to create safe, resilient, and sustainable infrastructure for the future. 👉 Follow our social media profiles for more partner introductions. 🌐 More info at nature-demo.eu
- Introducing NTNU, Norway’s largest university, renowned for its strong expertise in technology and natural sciences. Climate change is intensifying infrastructure challenges across the country, especially due to heavier rainfall, flooding, and water‑induced landslides. 🪴 🏔️ Nature‑based solutions are becoming essential, and NTNU will use knowledge from NATURE‑DEMO to educate future engineers who work with nature rather than against it. 👉 NTNU leads Task 1.2, contributes to Task 1.1, oversees the project’s quality assurance in
- Nature-Based Solutions for Climate-Resilient Rail Infrastructure Our project partner, the German Centre for Rail Traffic Research at the Federal Railway Authority (DZSF), has published a new technical article in Eisenbahntechnische Rundschau (ETR 7+8/2026). The publication explores how nature-based solutions (NbS) can be systematically integrated into rail networks to mitigate climate risks and enhance long-term infrastructure adaptation. Key insights highlighted in the article include: 🔹 The NATURE-DEMO NbS Catalogue for rail
- We are excited to introduce you the Transilvania University of Brașov — a multidisciplinary team advancing geospatial mapping, machine learning, and Nature‑based Solutions within the NATURE‑DEMO project. UTBV leads WP6. ⬆️ UTBV leads WP6 and develops living labs in the Brașov region to test NbS for urban water challenges. 💡 Follow our YouTube channel for more partner introductions. 🌍 More info at nature-demo.eu
