What do sustainability projects have in common with the stars in the night sky? More than you’d think! In this episode, we turn our telescopes to the trailblazing city of Alba Iulia, where a radically new approach to managing the city’s sustainability efforts is taking hold. As the first city in Romania to sign a Local Green Deal, and a participating city in the Intelligent Cities Challenge, Alba Iulia is a sparkling example of small-town tenacity. 

This conversation features Maria-Elena Seemann, Coordinator of Foreign Relations, Partnerships development and Urban innovation from the City of Alba Iulia; and Niklas Mischkovski, Head of the Governance Innovation team at ICLEI Europe.
