In this film, we explore two cities on the frontlines of climate adaptation: Copenhagen and Nairobi.

From Copenhagen’s innovative “sponge city” concept—designed to absorb and delay stormwater through parks, green roofs, and sustainable infrastructure—to the grassroots efforts of community leaders in Nairobi’s informal settlements, this film highlights the stark contrast between large-scale urban planning and community-driven solutions.

Join us as we meet the people transforming challenges into opportunities, from urban planning in Denmark to local youth groups like Komb Green Solutions in Kenya, who are reclaiming their environment and making their neighborhoods more resilient. Discover how green spaces not only protect cities from floods but also create vibrant, inclusive communities that improve quality of life, mental health, and social cohesion. This is a story of innovation, hope, and survival in a changing world.
