Integrated & Sustainable Urban Development
The URBACT II programme has launched a Call for Proposals for the creation of 12 new Thematic Networks and 3 new Working Groups on integrated and sustainable urban development issues. In particular, this Call is aimed at supporting European cities to deal with the challenges and consequences of either the economic crisis and climate change. Additionally, project proposals must address one of the 16 Priority topics defined for this Call.
Projects approved will focus on fostering exchange and learning among cities and other urban players, capitalising on knowledge, and disseminating good practices. By setting up Local Support Groups, producing Local Action Plans, and through transnational networking, these projects will both impact local policies and link into the priorities of their current EU co-financed Regional Operational Programmes.
Deadline: 25 September
