A warm thank you to all participants, and to our Brussels hosts, for two days of collaboration, innovation, and shared purpose!

From discussions at FARI to inspiring exchanges at BruCity, the meeting reinforced our joint ambition to make multifunctional rooftops a cornerstone of greener, more resilient, and inclusive cities.

We also had the pleasure of welcoming Luka Messmer, our Project Officer from Interreg North-West Europe (NWE), who opened the meeting and shared valuable insights about the programme’s expectations and long-term vision.

🔍 Reviewed outcomes of recent strategy sprints and coordinated the next steps with all working groups.

Over the two days, we:

💡 Defined a shared vision and roadmap for the first prototype of the MultiRoofs tool.

📣 Discussed our communication and marketing strategy to enhance visibility and engagement.

MultiRoofs aims to make better use of urban #rooftops - turning them into multifunctional spaces that combine green, energy, social, & circular uses. By connecting data, expertise, and local authorities, the project helps cities design & implement more sustainable and resilient rooftop strategies.

The MultiRoofs consortium met this week in Brussels, Belgium!

Hosted by @faribrussels.bsky.social (VUB/ @ulbruxelles.bsky.social ) and the Ville de Bruxelles - Stad Brussel, the two-day workshop gathered our partners from across North-West Europe to discuss progress and next steps for the project.

Together, we are developing tools, training, and real-life examples so that more communities can benefit from their rooftops.
