The ecological network of the north basin of the Rivers Sambre is a highly fragmented area where the challenge is to restore the ecological corridors. The sustainability of this common heritage requires the coordination of individual actions undertaken all over the cross-border territory to avoid the appearance of breakpoints in the ecological network. The TVBuONAIR project tackles the issue of fragmentation in urbanised environments, contributing both to the issue of cross-border cooperation in the construction of ecological coherence projects and also to the question of the reintroduction of nature in the city. For this territory, it also consists of including this project in the global objective of overhauling its image, which is strongly related to its metallurgical past. To that end, it aims at co-constructing a cross-border scheme to give an overall direction to the TVBu of the North Sambre basin with the local stakeholders by: pooling the knowledge of the various stakeholders of the territory, heritage and the environment; creating integrated management and planning tools for a cross-border river basin, public awareness and the dissemination of best practices; the implementation of local actions in favour of ecosystems and biodiversity. The planned activities should help to lift the "city/nature" divide and better integrate the needs of the inhabitants. (English)
