Ungheni leads a 1.47-million-euro European project on "green infrastructure". What it means and why it matters for the town

The town of Ungheni is not just taking part but leading "UCare" — a 1.47-million-euro European project that helps Black Sea Basin towns cope with heat, drought and floods through "green infrastructure": parks, trees, wetlands and surfaces that let water soak into the ground. A team from the Town Hall has just returned from a working meeting in Tulcea (3–6 August). Here is what the term means, who the partners are and what it brings, concretely, for the people of Ungheni.

Moldova counts its forests for the first time in history. In Ungheni, no one officially knows even how much is left

The government has approved the first National Forest Inventory in the history of the Republic of Moldova — a five-year process worth 2.4 million euros, funded largely by Romania. Only then will the country know exactly how much forest it has. For Ungheni district the stakes are direct: official statistics publish no forest-cover percentage for the district, while the forests managed here — from the Plaiul Fagului reserve to the strips beside the villages — are quietly cut in winter for firewood.
