Poor air quality, high level of greenhouse gas emissions and ambient noise, neglect of the built environment and low biodiversity is undoubtedly associated the quality people lives. 80% of European citizens live in cities. AGROS project can contribute to addressing these challenges through proper training on the adoption of green roofs practices.

Consequently, the use of such technologies will upgrade the life quality (visually and practically) and will contribute to the environment protection. Citizens who participate in program will develop skills and attributes such as cultural awareness, social responsibility, empathy in environmental protection, and creative thinking as well.

The main objectives are:

  • the promotion of the practice of green roofs as a response to environmental care

  • the enhancement of actual responses to social-personal-environmental issues
