Why This Consultation Format Can Make a Big Difference

This is not just about theory, but about concrete implementation: What greening measures fit the building? How can funding be sensibly combined? And what solutions bring real added value for climate, quality of stay, and biodiversity in everyday life? According to its documents, the city of Freiburg funds up to 60 percent of eligible costs, with a combination of several modules allowing for up to 25,000 euros per property. Additionally, self-contributions and measures for rainwater retention are also considered. ([freiburg.de](https://www.freiburg.de/pb/1700720.html))

Greening Walk in Zähringen

The walk makes visible what greening can achieve in the district: cooler facades, livelier courtyards, more shade, and an urban environment with noticeably better event atmosphere for everyday life. Those who want to make their building climate-fit will receive a practical event experience with a direct reference to Freiburg's urban development. The format is explicitly aimed at people without their own property, provided that the owners' consent is in place.
