SUMMARY:European Transport Innovation Challenge 2017 - deadline for applictions is 2 May
DESCRIPTION:This transport innovation Challenge will reward transport innovators for their ideas for a cleaner and more efficient future in transport. \nThe EU is committed to cutting CO2 emissions by at least 40% by 2030 and by 80% by 2050. With transportation accounting for one quarter of CO2 emissions\, there is a need to radically transform the way people and goods are transported. This Challenge will help move the EU along the path of decarbonisation and sustainable growth. \nThe 12 winners of the Challenge will get a free trip to Strasbourg (France) on 19\, 20 and 21 June 2017 to follow the ITS Congress\, Europe’s biggest gathering of professionals working in intelligent transport systems.

SUMMARY:Start course 'EU policy and implementation: making Europe work!'
DESCRIPTION:About this course: People have become more critical of European policy and often seem to prefer local policy solutions in response to globalisation problems. How do you experience EU policy? Does it help? And if not\, how can we change this? In this course\, we learn how EU policy is made\, and how policy is transferred to member states and implemented by various authorities\, including regional and local governments. We discuss the challenges of the European multi-level governance structure. We also focus on the main causes of policy failure or success. On this journey\, we focus on actual policy and present the views of various experts: how easy is it to establish yourself in another EU-country? How do governments make sure that the air you breathe is clean? And who is responsible? \nYou will be able to do research together in your own local setting. Research on implementation in which you can make comparisons between different countries or areas. If you live outside the EU\, this is not a problem. We have developed assignments in such a way that you can do research in your area and compare your findings with others. \nMore information and enrollment

SUMMARY:Games for Cities Conference & Doctoral Consortium
DESCRIPTION:How can games improve the process of urban planning? That’s the central question at the upcoming Games for Cities International Conference\, taking place in Het Nieuwe Instituut in Rotterdam\, April 20-21 2017.\nAt the conference\, game designers\, researchers\, architects\, planners and policymakers explore how games can be used as a method for generating more engaged citizens and more inclusive cities. Gaming offers a real alternative to standard forms of civic engagement in the 21st century\, bringing a range of stakeholders together and enabling collaborative decision-making and conflict\nresolution to emerge from this.\nKeynotes include: Paolo Pedercini of Molleindustria\, Eric Gordon from Emerson’s Engagement Lab\, Urban Think Tank’s Alfredo Brillembourg\, Felix Madrazo from Inter.National.Design\, and Play the City’s Ekim Tan. 10 leading city-games will also be available for play at the conference. \nMore information
