Ponds in Amay

Thanks to an innovative partnership between the Municipality of Amay, Natagora and Kick, citizens can now benefit from personalised support in creating a pond. A specialist can now help you prepare for the project and will come to your home to supervise the digging so that no questions remain unanswered. All you have to do is buy the materials and invite friends, neighbours and family to lend a hand! Five participatory projects have already been organised in Amay, and nearly a dozen are planned for 2025.

Naturbasierte Lösungen

• Nutzung der Natur/natürlicher Prozesse, die die biologische Vielfalt unterstützen, um die Herausforderungen im Zusammenhang mit dem Klimawandel, der Wasserwirtschaft (einschließlich Hochwassermanagement) und der Bodendegradation zu bewältigen;
• Have respect for and/or improve the specific environmental and ecological characteristics of the area (e.g. the topography, the type of landscape, the local plant and animal life, …);
• Einbindung dieser natürlichen Prozesse in die Umgebung und die Umwelt;
• Implement those natural processes in a way that is consistent with other actions undertaken to address these challenges (e.g. rehabilitate native plant species around water amenities that are set up to improve water management, …);
• Stärkung des ökologischen Verbunds zwischen naturbasierten Lösungen und den umliegenden Naturgebieten.

Long-term maintenance and management is carried out by citizens for private plots and by the municipality for public plots.
