Hear What Our Partners Have To Say

Tiago Guerreiro

Lawyer @ PLMJ

Thank you very much for allowing us to contribute to a better Lisbon! At PLMJ we have been with Urbem since day one, and it has been an absolute pleasure to see such a relevant project bloom! From pro-bono legal assistance to team building activities, planting trees, the relationship is growing stronger each day!

Maria João Telhado

Diretora Municipal do Departamento de Ambiente @ Energia e Alterações Climáticas

A CML orgulha-se de ser parte desta cocriação para transformar espaços urbanos que não só beneficiam o ambiente, mas também enriquecem a experiência da comunidade.

Natan Jacquemin

Founder @ NAM

The network the mycelium creates between the mushrooms and species is reflected in the work that Urbem does by connecting people to each other and the environment.

Partners

The CONEXUS Project

It has been a pleasure to collaborate with Urbem. Although a lot of their work is voluntary, we got to know Urbem as a reliable and pro-active partner… Urbem was one of the first partners to deliver material on the Lisbon Renatura pilot and were quick to respond to feedback. We wish Urbem many fruitful collaborations and successful implementation of their endeavours.

Ways to Get Involved

URBEM is a reputable, registered-NGO working in partnership with the EU Conexus Fund for Sustainable Cities, Camara Municipal Lisboa, and PLMJ. We are also guided by the EU sustainable Life on Land campaign.

Whether you’re boosting Corporate Social Responsibility efforts or interested in eco-outreach, there are many opportunities for your organization to work with URBEM, including:

Corporate Sponsorships and Donations

Each FastForest® costs roughly €4000 to plan, plant, and maintain. We rely on corporate and individual donations to fund this critical work. Your organization's ongoing or one-time donation directly funds URBEM’s life-sustaining projects while enriching your corporate philanthropic portfolio.

Host an Activity or Performance

Do you run a yoga, dance, or fitness studio? Do you teach meditation, sketching, activities for kids, or music? Our second FastForest® is a hub for community involvement. Creating a free class or event is a wonderful way to help enrich the community while spending time outdoors.
