Webinar: Building Climate-Resilient Inland Waterways

How can we build climate-resilient inland waterways? What role do technological innovations and digitalization play in improving the sustainability of inland waterway transport? How can these advancements help us address the challenges of climate change and environmental sustainability? 

Three projects dedicated to waterways join forces Thursday, 8 May, from 14:00-15:00 online for an insightful webinar exploring these critical questions. 

This event will showcase three EU-funded projects—ReNEW, CRISTAL, and PLOTO—which are pioneering solutions to enhance the resilience and sustainability of inland waterways. Funded under a common call for climate-resilient and environmentally sustainable transport infrastructure, these projects are driving innovation, promoting modal shifts in transportation, and reshaping the future of inland navigation.

ERTICO, a member of the PLOTO consortium, is strongly committed to resilient mobility—a commitment clearly reflected in the upcoming ITS European Congress, which focuses on clean, resilient, and connected mobility.
