  • Zero pollution in air, water, and soil
  • Carbon/Climate neutrality
  • Biodiversity and protected areas
  • Nature-based solutions and green infrastructure (e.g. tree-planting, nature regeneration and greening of urban areas.)

The 61 km of Green corridors along the banks of the three main city rivers will provide environmental, social and economic benefits by restoring biodiversity and providing pedestrian and cycling paths, bringing citizens and their rivers together again.

Over time, as economic activity has grown, stress on environmental resources has increased, leading to water pollution and biodiversity loss and separating rivers and citizens. Guimarães river greenways are large-scale greenways (61km) through the blue infrastructure, promoting the rehabilitation of river banks and territorial cohesion, based on a participatory methodology and applying a three-dimensional approach:

  1. creating identity
  2. transforming the landscape
  3. building the future
