 Zoomed in brateevo The Department for Natural Resource Management and Environmental Protection of Moscow and the Dutch Government Service for Land and Water management (DLG), are working together with the Dutch consultancy OKRA landscape architects, the Russian consultancy Ampir (landscape) architects and the Research and Design Institute for the Master Plan of Moscow on the development and exchange of ideas for a sustainable cityscape. Objective is to develop a toolkit for sustainable green development as an integral part of urban (re)development. The project is supported by the Dutch Ministery of Economic Affairs, Agriculture and Innovation (Government to Government).  Zoomed in brateevo Both in Moscow, a densely built mega polis, and in the Netherlands, a densely populated urbanized country, there are big challenges on how to maintain and develop a healthy green urban and peri-urban environment. Improving the quality of existing public space and cityscape and to develop new areas on a sustainable way, will improve the quality of living and create new economic, social and environmental value. Green can create so much more!  Center The development and exchange of ideas works best on a local scale. The idea is to change Brateevo, a Soviet high-rise block district along Moscow river, into a vibrant and green part of the city by linking green and blue structures to the urban tissue and meanwhile activate public realm. The first outlines as presented shows that Brateevo in particular and Moscow in general, have great potential for a bright and sustainable future. Bringing smart connections on every scale, making big plans and small plans, crossing borders, but most of all by working together.  Collectibng The Russian-Dutch team of designers and policy makers will work out the master plan toward projects and thus more and more towards realisation. Local knowledge, local energy, but also scientific and practical knowledge will be fully used. One thing is for sure: together, we can make the difference!
