12 червня / 2021
Rivne is one of the cities that have chosen the path of innovative development to a sustainable future. Our joint program is designed to bring the region closer to the desired goal! Together with representatives of the Rivne region, we formulated tasks for startups on two topics: the development of cycling infrastructure and water treatment. We are now announcing a selection for all willing startups that have solutions to solve these problems. We are sure that you have something to offer for the innovative development of the Rivne region!
Objective: Water management
Challenge: The situation with reservoirs in the city of Rivne has several problems. There is no sewerage of households, sewage treatment plants at enterprises and control over them in the city, a significant part of the city's residents do not have centralized sewerage. In addition, the problem is that wastewater drains into reservoirs and is not properly treated, Lake BasivKut has stagnant water, and the flow of the Ustye River is weak.
Task 1:
How can we help coastal users, organize garbage collection and sewage disposal, and create conditions for air purification and bathing through the development of infrastructure that will promote environmental safety to change the current situation with water pollution?
Task 2:
How can we help residents and guests of the city of Rivne to properly use water bodies and coastal areas through the development of infrastructure and navigation for recreation and recreation, etc., so that they do not have to travel outside the city?
Objective: Development of cycling infrastructure
Challenge: The territory of the Green Trail, which passes through the whole region, consists of various roads and paths. Only some of them are available for cyclists - they are small pieces of the Trail, not connected by a single path for cyclists. There is currently no specially equipped cycling infrastructure. The development of this direction in the city of the Rivne and beyond on the territory of the Green Trail is important for air purification, reduction of congestion, improvement of the ecological situation in the region and the health of residents and visitors of the Rivne region.
Task 1:
How can we help active city residents who want to lead a healthy lifestyle travel on the Green Trail around the city and beyond by bike by providing them with a convenient infrastructure and advice on the basis of which they can make a choice in favor of cycling?
Task 2:
How can we help active city residents who want to ride a bike so that they can safely get to the place of recreation, work, etc. by bike and not spend a lot of time on an inconvenient road through providing solutions to help users choose a bike instead of a car?
