SUMMARY:SoHoLab Webinar: In situ Applying ‘situated’ approaches
DESCRIPTION:SoHoLab\, a JPI Urban Europe funded project within the ERA-NET Cofund Smart Urban Futures\, is in its final stage and will be hosting three webinars this fall\, 13\, 20\, 27 October 2020\, to highlight progresses and results. \nThe first episode focus on the complexity and uncertainty of the contemporary city and urbanareas such as large-scale social estates require new readings\, interpretations and analytical lenses. Regeneration cannot be thought remotely but should be rooted in place. This entails diving into everyday life and social practices\, as an inherent component of the urban planning process. This practice of ‘situating’ in space and place can be introduced before the planning process\, undertaken simultaneously or developed throughout the development process\, preferably constantly contaminating the practice. But how such immersion takes place? Which methods can be applied to systematically observe and connect people\, spaces\, and the planning processes that impact on it? What kind of information do such methods bring to the planning table? Is it possible to open up rather rigid and formatted planning processes for local knowledge? \nIn this webinar we focus on how to accumulate local knowledge and nurture ongoing regeneration processes of large-scale social estates.\nWe are especially interested in practices at the crossroads of art\, ethnography\, architecture and urban planning. \nAgenda\nIntroduction (5’)\nPilot project SoHoLab: Jeanne Mosseray (10’)\nMirror project: Sophie Ricard\, Construire (10’)\nKeynote lecture: Ferdinando Fava\, DiSSGeA (25’)\nDebate (30’)\nSummary (5’) \nVisit http://www.soholab.org/news/soholab-webinars for more information and to register \nLearn more about SoHoLab \n\nThe SoHoLab project was a 3-year research addressing resident involvement\, local knowledge and stakeholder collaboration in the context of the regeneration of large-scale social estates. The project identified Urban Living Labs as potentially innovative approaches to launch open and collaborative processes in the policy context of urban regeneration. Considering multiple failures of so-called ‘participatory approaches’\, the SoHolab tried to find out which tools and methods could be applied in order to more effectively open up the policy design and implementation phases for local voices\, topics and concerns. By evaluating and developing Living Lab approaches in different contexts\, the three research units involved focused on defining research and practice characteristics supporting more participatory regeneration processes. In this webinar series\, we want to disseminate the knowledge acquired during three years of research\, entering in\ndialogue with similar practices\, while addressing open questions and venues for further research. \n

SUMMARY:SoHoLab Webinar: Enabling spaces Promoting local and institutional empowerment
DESCRIPTION:SoHoLab\, a JPI Urban Europe funded project within the ERA-NET Cofund Smart Urban Futures\, is in its final stage and will be hosting three webinars this fall\, 13\, 20\, 27 October 2020\, to highlight progresses and results. \nSecond episode: Urban Living Labs are seen as promising approaches to transform and enlarge urban governance in the context of urban regeneration. Acting as “cross-boundary arenas” (Concilio\, 2016)\, they are able to connect stakeholders and relevant actors at different levels. On the one hand\, local inhabitants and organizations can play a crucial role in urban governance. Even though territories such as large-scale social estates are often characterized by high levels of socio-economic fragility\, at the same time they represent “local tanks” of competences\nand social resources that often tend to remain invisible. On the other hand\, institutions have a crucial role in the “public city” and their participation is essential to allow transformation and change. Yet\, they have progressively lost their connection with territories and their inhabitants: they need to regain knowledge and understanding of these places and of the possible tools to intervene. Therefore\, local and institutional empowerment could be considered as key ingredients for a radically new planning approach for the regeneration of large-scale social estates. Which tools and methods foster the interaction among different “social worlds”? How could we re-frame participation starting from the collaborative dimension of “doing together”? What is the\nrelevance of co-research and how to promote institutional learning? In this webinar we focus on the potential role of ULL as ‘brokers’\, enabling interaction among different actors and more effective collaborations among stakeholders. \nAgenda\nIntroduction (5’)\nPilot project SoHoLab: Elena Maranghi (10’)\nMirror project: Romain Gallart\, Appuii (10’)\nKeynote lecture: Yvonne Franz\, ÖAW (25’)\nDebate (30’)\nSummary (5’) \nVisit http://www.soholab.org/news/soholab-webinars for more information and to register \nLearn more about SoHoLab \n\nThe SoHoLab project was a 3-year research addressing resident involvement\, local knowledge and stakeholder collaboration in the context of the regeneration of large-scale social estates.

SUMMARY:Conference: ‘Towards sustainable mobility – one neighbourhood at a time’ by the LOOPER project (ENSUF call)
DESCRIPTION:How can co-creation at the neighbourhood level help reshape urban development across Europe? Find out at the conference ‘Towards sustainable mobility – one neighbourhood at a time’! The Neighbourhood Projects are delighted to invite you to our final and joint event taking place October 20 from 14.00 – 17.00 CET. \n \nThe Joint Neighbourhood Conference showcases the processes and results of four European projects working towards better mobility solutions with people in their neighbourhoods. The conference is part of POLIS’ Mobilising Mobility Webinar Series. \nThese four projects (Cities-4-People\, Looper\, Metamorphosis and Sunrise) brought back the city to its citizens. In 21 locations across Europe and beyond\, local residents\, stakeholders and public authorities re-assessed and re-imagined their immediate surroundings with the guidance and support of the project teams. Together\, they developed ideas for concrete measures\, prioritised them and implemented them for the benefit of local air quality\, accessibility\, safety\, social cohesion\, mobile independence – in short: quality of life. \nIn some of the projects\, local “labs” created a third space\, where public authorities and citizens could learn about each other’s requirements\, constraints and ideas in a collaborative way towards a transformation of on-the-ground realities. These labs are also an important way to extend the life of the project beyond its funding period\, as these platforms can continue to be used for future initiatives. \nDuring the event\, you will have the opportunity to participate in breakout sessions where we will discuss and elaborate on some of the big messages steaming from the four neighbourhood projects. You will have the chance to ask questions and learn about the project’s stories and processes. Most importantly\, you will take part in how the future discussions about how co-creation at the neighbourhood level can help reshape urban development across Europe. \n> Read more about the conference

SUMMARY:SoHoLab Webinars: Beyond commonplaces Spatial transformations based on changing lifestyles and new imaginaries
DESCRIPTION:SoHoLab\, a JPI Urban Europe funded project within the ERA-NET Cofund Smart Urban Futures\, is in its final stage and will be hosting three webinars this fall\, 13\, 20\, 27 October 2020\, to highlight progresses and results. \nThird episode: In the period before and after World War 2\, large-scale housing developments with towers and slabs in a green environment were an important spatial paradigm in social housing construction. This came to an abrupt end after the crisis in the early 1970s. The crisis and changing models of society paved the way for new spatial paradigms\, in the form of smaller-scale or mixed housing developments. Due to their limited maintenance and technical and architectural quality\, today\, many large-scale social estates are facing renovation. Dismissing these renovations as beaten tracks would do injustice to careful architectural and urban design efforts for creating typological variety and morphological innovation\, emphasizing scenic qualities\, or improving energy performance and water storage capacity. Nevertheless\, large-scale social estates remain subject to persistent social-spatial assumptions. Statements on public spaces that are difficult to ‘defend’ (Newman\, 1972)\, or impossible to appropriate\, a social mix that is ‘endangered’\, a lacking ecological imperative\, remain part and parcel in regeneration discourses. In this webinar we want to unpack these commonplaces\, looking for new entries and outlooks\, based on changing lifestyles and new imaginaries. \nAgenda\nIntroduction (5’)\nPilot project SoHoLab: Dominique Lefrançois (10’)\nMirror project: Anne Lacaton\, Lacaton & Vasal (10’)\nKeynote lecture: Paola Vigano\, Studio Paola Vigano\, EPFL\, IUAV (25’)\nDebate (30’)\nSummary (5’) \nVisit http://www.soholab.org/news/soholab-webinars for more information and to register \nLearn more about SoHoLab \n\nThe SoHoLab project was a 3-year research addressing resident involvement\, local knowledge and stakeholder collaboration in the context of the regeneration of large-scale social estates.

SUMMARY:SMARTER 2020 Conference: 6th Webinar - Sustainable Urban Development and Innovation: aligning policies for change
DESCRIPTION:This webinar\, by the Smart Specialisation Platform at the European Commission\, targets the nexus between urban development and innovation\, and the integration of different policy instruments and frameworks. JPI Urban Europe’s chair of the Management board\, Margit Noll\, joins the panel. You can read the following info about the webinar and register on the organiser’s event page: \nIn our fast-changing world\, Europe is facing pressing challenges – climate change\, digital transition\, ageing\, migration and social inequalities – and cities are often in the frontline to deliver solutions. Moreover\, cities and urban regions are not just mere containers for innovative activities but are actively involved in the generation of new ideas\, organisational forms and solutions (products\, services\, and businesses). \nThe importance of cities in driving the transition towards a sustainable way of living for all is well recognised in the Urban Agenda for the EU\, the upcoming “New Leipzig Charter – The Transformative Power of Cities for the Common Good” and in global agendas\, such as the Sustainable Development Goals and the New Urban Agenda. This is also mirrored by the fact that cities’ innovation is at the core of different EU initiatives for post 2020\, from EU cohesion policy to the new mission-oriented approach of Horizon Europe. Both policies aim at fostering new alliances and coalitions for change\, and achieve common and broader development goals. \nThe webinar will address the nexus between urban development and innovation and explore the possible integration of different policy instruments and frameworks. The issue of policy alignment is particularly relevant considering that on the one hand\, integrated and place-based approach is gaining importance in the EU innovation policy debate\, and on the other hand\, cities are regaining control of innovation agenda at local level\, with emphasis on collaborative models\, participation and strategic thinking. In other words\, there is a need to address conditions and opportunities for aligning EU policies\, as well as the role of national urban policies in promoting innovative solutions and arrangements. \nFollowing a framing speech by Kevin Morgan\, the webinar will present reflections on ongoing experiences as Sustainable Urban Development strategies supported by cohesion policy\, the JPI Urban Europe research network and the co-creation process of the New Leipzig Charter. All together\, they will provide the opportunity to discuss to what extent the EU discourse on integrated urban development can steer a different approach to innovation. \n\nMore information\n\n\nThe Handbook of Sustainable Urban Development Strategies\n\n\n\nAgenda and Presentations\nWelcome and opening speech: \n\nPeter Bosch\, Advisor for Cross Disciplinary Knowledge to the Deputy Director-General of the Joint Research Centre\n\nChair: Alessandro Rainoldi\, Head of Unit\, Joint Research Centre\, European Commission \nMain session: \n\nKevin Morgan\, Cardiff University\nMargit Noll\, JPI Urban Europe\nMartina Pertoldi\, Joint Research Centre\, European Commission\nMart Grisel\, European Urban Knowledge Network (EUKN)\n\nModerator: Carlotta Fioretti\, Joint Research Centre\, European Commission \nClosing of the SMARTER2020 conference: \n\nSally Hardy\, CEO\, Regional Studies Association\nAlessandro Rainoldi\, Head of Unit\, Joint Research Centre\, European Commission\n>> Regsiter here

SUMMARY:Urban Lunch Talk #15 - Taking action in capacity building for sustainable futures
DESCRIPTION:What are the capacities needed to drive urban transitions to sustainable futures? Past decades have presented the knowledge and technical expertise to build more sustainable urban areas – but what are the prerequisites or strategies for going from ambition to transition? This Urban Lunch Talk will start with two brief result presentations by projects in the Making Cities Work call. Following the presentations\, invited guests will exchange knowledge and give examples of capacities needed to drive urban transitions. Are there experiences\, guidelines and approaches to learn from? Registered participants to this event can listen to invited guests and participate via the chat and the polls. At the end of the event\, the chat will remain open for 15 more minutes and participants will be invited to a Slack channel for continued self-organised chat and exchange. Representatives from the upcoming call for project proposals ERA-NET Cofund Urban Transformation Capacities (ENUTC) will be available for questions about the call in the webinar chat. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nYou are currently viewing a placeholder content from YouTube.

Martin recently wrote the chapter “Strategy: What is more important than getting things done? Learning from Sustainable Sydney 2030” in the book “Dilemmas of Sustainable Urban Development – A View From Practice” (in this book you also find the chapter “Programming Urban Transitions in Practice” by JPI Urban Europe).\nM’Lisa Lee Colbert is the Associate Director of The Nature of Cities\, an international platform for transdisciplinary dialogue and urban solutions: “We curate the sharing of diverse\, transformative ideas about cities as ecosystems of people\, nature\, and infrastructure”. M’Lisa designs and develops transdisciplinary projects and programming. The mission of The Nature of Cities is to curate joined conversations about urbanism across ways of knowing and modes of action. The organisation strives for cities worldwide that are resilient\, sustainable\, livable\, and just.\nSascha Benes works as an urban planner and digital strategist at Örebro Municipality\, a middle-sized city in Sweden – and one of the fastest growing ones (due to an increase in children and elderly). Creating a robust urban (and rural) system and finding innovative solutions effectively is key to the sustainable provision of services within\, and liveability of the municipality as a whole. Örebro has experiences of working with organisational trust and so called “incremental change management” as means for urban robustness.\nRichard Pfeifer\, from the SYNCITY project\, will present how urban transformation projects\, especially in deprived areas with highly diverse communities\, can reach high acceptance by dwellers and have positive consequences for the urban society as such\, the economy and the overall co-living in the city. Participation processes are often subject to hidden agendas or implicit values conveyed through discursive practices in actor constellations. SYNCITY opted for a transparent way to deal with this dilemma and developed the Syncity Sustainability Criteria – a normative framework for steering through the midst of participatory urban planning.\nAnna Fredriksson\, from the MIMIC project\, will present results on stakeholder dialogue\, logistics optimization\, mobility\, and smart governance to facilitate and support logistics around urban construction sites. MIMIC has created a decision support that shows how the impact of a decision will affect the next step and decision. “Our goal is always to minimise the storage- and transport costs. In the end this is also the most sustainable solution\, so it is a gain for everyone\, both the climate and the developer’s wallet”\, says Anna Fredriksson.\n\n>> MIMIC results presentation\n\n \nSYNCITY results presentation \n  \n \nBackground\nThe Urban Lunch Talks in 2020 have been shaped on the theme of “taking action” as they followed up on the 2019 talks introducing the dilemma-driven approach in JPI Urban Europe’s Strategic Research and Innovation Agenda (SRIA) 2.0. At the same time\, supported projects in Making Cities Work (which targets R&I implementation issues) are delivering results. As part of the preparation of the next European Research and Innovation Framework Programme – Horizon Europe – new mechanisms for public-public partnerships are under development. One of the candidates for such a European partnership is the Driving Urban Transitions to a Sustainable Future (DUT) partnership\, which builds upon the achievements of JPI Urban Europe. The partnership aims to strengthen JPI Urban Europe’s joint efforts of bringing knowledge and evidence into action – towards sustainable urban development. \nResearch and innovation (R&I) contribute with evidence on urban dilemmas and can support capacity building for urban transformation: turning wicked issues into synergistic potential. This needs to be supported by aligning ongoing related initiatives and by building upon existing experience and knowledge. You can read more about these themes in JPI Urban Europe’s upcoming ERA-NET Cofund urban transformation capacities (ENUTC). \nIntroduction to “urban transformation capacities”\nUrban transformation capacities involve the process of building capacities such as skills\, insights\, tools\, organisational and personal capabilities\, working methods and processes\, access to experiences and verifiable knowledge. Developing strategies to enhance urban transformation capacities also includes public sector innovation and new approaches to governance\, building of new structures and procedures e.g. for envisioning and scenario development; for carrying out\, evaluating and scaling up urban experiments; for collaboration of the public sector\, private sector\, academia and civil society; for integrating policies across sectors; and for learning\, monitoring and reflection of change processes etc. Capacity building is also enabled and supported by using new technologies and tools\, knowledge co-creation\, urban experimental approaches at different scales (e.g. urban living labs\, city labs\, maker spaces)\, policy labs\, and other kinds of systematic approaches for stakeholder including non-academic stakeholder involvement. \nTransnational policy documents such as Transforming our world: the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development\, the New Urban Agenda and the Urban Agenda for the EU\, stress the great urgency for a rapid sustainable transformation of cities and urban areas worldwide. They present ambitious and comprehensive targets addressing a wide variety of urban challenges in order to make cities and human settlements inclusive\, safe\, healthy\, resilient and sustainable. Furthermore\, they highlight the need to stake out pathways for an urban transformation that strengthen relevant stakeholders and actors’ capacities to tackle the sustainability challenges ahead. This transformation requires capacity building by and for all actors involved in the transition to a sustainable future. \n(Source: the ENUTC draft call text\, 2020-12-01) \n \nQuestions about this event?

SUMMARY:Webinar: Food-Water-Energy - Nexus approaches for sustainable development and improved living standards
DESCRIPTION:Welcome to a joint webinar organised by JPI Urban Europe in collaboration with the European Network of Research and Innovation Centres and Hubs (ENRICH) in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC). In this event\, participants from Europe and Latin America will gain knowledge and understanding of the Food-Water-Energy (FWE) Nexus\, its characteristics\, as well as its tool for how to address the city solutions in innovative ways with concrete examples.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\nYou are currently viewing a placeholder content from YouTube.

Please note that doing so will share data with third-party providers. \n More Information \n Unblock content Accept required service and unblock content \n \n \n\nThis webinar is one of a series organized by ENRICH in LAC and JPI Urban Europe on sustainable urbanization. The objective of this workshop series is to facilitate an exchange of knowledge and experiences between some Latin American countries and Europe. The webinar will build upon previously organized events in the series on Positive Energy Districts\, organized within the ANPEI 2020 Conference and Urban Living Labs. This event targets programme managers at funding agencies\, city administrators\, local public officers\, city planners and developers\, researchers working on urbanization related areas\, civil society\, companies\, and other stakeholders interested in co-creation processes. \nBackground\n“The interactions between food\, water and energy sectors\, both now and over the next few decades\, are of critical interest to policy-makers\, scientists\, and society at large. By 2050\, the world population is projected to increase to around 9 billion\, with the number of people living in urban areas expected to double. These trends in population density and movement\, coupled with land use change and climate variability\, will lead to major increases in demand for resources and hold important implications for security and social justice. The reciprocal and dynamic processes of urbanisation\, including the physical movements of populations\, the build-up of city territories\, transformation of economic structures\, extension of suburban sprawl\, and re-urbanisation\, will result in increasing regional stress on the urban food-water-energy (FWE) system. \nTo date\, we have a limited understanding of the FWE system’s complexity\, resilience and thresholds. Investigations of this complex system will produce discoveries that cannot emerge from research on food or water or energy systems alone. An urban FWE nexus approach focuses on intersections and potential synergies between sectors and fields commonly seen apart in business\, policy\, and research. Thus\, the FWE nexus approach can play a pivotal role in fostering sustainable urbanisation\, by proposing potential solutions to govern resource interdependencies through comprehensive spatial perspectives and multi-level governance strategies.”\n(from Midterm Valorization Event: SUGI – Sustainable Urbanisation Global Initiative Food-Water-Energy Nexus) \nWebinar Agenda\n\n\n\nWelcome and introduction \nWelcome by: Berna Windischbaur\, ENRICH in LAC \nIntro by moderator: Johannes Riegler\, JPI Urban Europe\n\n\nIntroduction to FWE \nJonas Bylund\, JPI Urban Europe\n\n\nUpcoming Belmont Forum Opportunities in FWE\nErica Key\, Executive Director\, Belmont Forum Secretariat\n\n\nProject: WASTE FEW ULL – Waste Food-Energy-Water Urban Living Labs\nDaniel Black\, Daniel Black + Associates\, Bristol\, UK) \nEster Dal Poz\, University of Campinas\, Brazil\n\n\n  \nCase from Uruguay\nTBA – Agencia Nacional de Investigación e Innovación de Uruguay (ANII)\n\n\n  \nProject: Creating Interfaces  \n \nPia Laborgne\, EIFER\, Karlsruhe\, Germany \n& \nJoanna Suchomska\, PZR – Sustainable Development Laboratory – Torun\, Poland\n\n\nDiscussions\, questions and answers from the audience incl.

Partners in Norway and the USA will provide economic valuations of potential impact\, and impact-led public education\, outreach and dissemination. \nThe Urban Living Labs (ULLs) of stakeholders are organised to: \n\nmap resource flows\nidentify critical dysfunctional linear pathways\nagree the response most appropriate to the local context\nmodel the market and non-market economic value of each intervention\nengage with decision makers to close each loop.\n\nThe project will contribute with policy decision support models for economically viable waste reduction\, rethinking waste as a resource as well as establish entrepreneurship networks in each ULL to continue working after the formal end of the project. \n3) Project: CREATING INTERFACES \nThe Creating Interfaces project addresses capacity building for the urban food-water-energy (FWE) -nexus\, making the FWE-linkages understandable to the stakeholders (city government\, science\, business and citizens)\, and facilitating cooperation and knowledge exchange among them. It will develop and test innovative approaches for local knowledge co-creation and participation through Urban Living Labs and Citizen Science approaches in three mid-size cities on water: Tulcea (Romania)\, Wilmington (USA) and Slupsk (Poland). Complemented by previous research and a citizen science toolbox\, these labs comprise a user-defined co-creative approach\, where research questions\, problems\, and solutions are decided and implemented with stakeholders themselves.\n>> Watch the CREATING INTERFACES video: https://youtu.be/iAz9GGSWd0U  \nWatch\n> Youtube Livestream: https://lnkd.in/ekJEwGr\n

SUMMARY:Urban Lunch Talk #16: Positive Energy Districts - The Do’s\, Don’ts and Dilemmas
DESCRIPTION:Welcome to an Urban Lunch Talk about Positive Energy Districts and Neighbourhoods (PEDs) with a variety of invited guests. What does it take to transform the urban energy system to a sustainable one – and how can stakeholders succeed with vital steps in the implementation process of for example Positive Energy Districts? Participants to this webinar can join with input in the chat and vote in polls. \nImage credit: Festoon House Lighting\n\n\n\n\n\n\nYou are currently viewing a placeholder content from YouTube.

Positive Energy Districts (PEDs) are energy-efficient and energy-flexible urban areas or groups of connected buildings which produce net zero greenhouse gas emissions. PEDs actively manage an annual local or regional surplus production of renewable energy. They require integration of different systems and infrastructures and an interaction between buildings\, the users and the regional energy\, mobility and ICT systems. PEDs also need to secure the energy supply\, and a good life for all in line with social\, economic and environmental sustainability.​​​​​​ Europe aims to be a global role model in energy transition and reducing its carbon footprint. Cities and the building sector play a decisive role in that process. The Programme “Positive Energy Districts and Neighbourhoods for Sustainable Urban Development” aims to support the planning\, deployment and replication of 100 Positive Energy Neighbourhoods by 2025 and is joined by 20 EU member states. The Programme is conducted by JPI Urban Europe\, and involves stakeholders from R&I funding networks\, cities\, industry\, research organisations and citizen organisations. \nJoin the chat and the polls with your input: \n– Is a neighbourhood-oriented approach like Positive Energy Districs a useful contribution achieving climate-neutral cities?\n– What are methods and processes already tested in local energy transitions\, and what can we learn from these experiences?\n– From your perspective\, what are most urgent R&I topics regarding PED development and local energy transitions?\n– What are your do’s\, don’ts or dilemmas for realising local energy transitions towards sustainability? How do you move forward in complicated situations? \nMeet \n\nChristoph Gollner\, the PED Programme Coordinating Programme Manager. Christoph is a graduate engineer in spatial and urban planning and has been working for the Austrian Academy of Sciences and in urban revitalization for the City of Vienna.\n\nProfessor Goran Strbac from the STEP-UP project: Socio-Techno-Economic Pathways for sustainable Urban energy development. The project studies four cities (London\, Beijing\, Delft and Suzhou) which together represent large and medium as well as historic and new cities in EU and China. The findings will be summarized in policy recommendations\, a business case and a road map for urban energy transformation in the EU and China will be proposed when the project finalises. STEP-UP is part of the pilot call Sustainable and Liveable Cities and Urban Areas organized by JPI Urban Europe and the National Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC). Goran is Professor of Electrical Energy Systems at Imperial College\, London.\nChris Cooper from the CRUNCH project (Climate Resilient Urban Nexus CHoices: operationalising the Food-Water- Energy Nexus) investigates food\, water and energy as one complex system\, leading to increased knowledge and discoveries that cannot emerge when investigated separately in ‘silos’. Chris works with the CRUNCH IDSS as a digital twin concept and how the data management regime was identified using smart city standards.\nJim Segers from City Mine(d) -an international organisation based in Brussels and London. Since 1997 it developed over one hundred projects in fifteen cities throughout Europe\, either at its own initiative or as facilitator. City Mine(d)’s aim is to make urban development everyone’s business. One current project is “La Pile“: a project that creates links between neighbours to that reinvents electricity in the city. You can here join the electric test field to generate electricity locally\, distribute it to neighbours\, consume less\, or at other times\, invest together in the future.\nCaroline Wrangsten (host)\, project manager in JPI Urban Europe with a focus on communication. Caroline has a MSc in Environmental Social Science where she majored in human geography and urban development. Caroline has previously worked at the UN Association of Sweden and think tank Global Utmaning. She is part of the international expert group for #UrbanGirlsMovement and #HerCity.\n\n\n  \nRead more\n>> Article: Towards 100 Positive Energy Districts in Europe – Preliminary Data Analysis of 61 European Cases \n>> PED Booklet \n>> Announcement: Projects awarded funding in Positive Energy Districts (PEDs) pilot call

SUMMARY:Urban Lunch Talk #17: Regenerative Green Neighbourhoods and Circularity Transitions - The Do’s\, Don’ts and Dilemmas
DESCRIPTION:Welcome to an Urban Lunch Talk around the themes in the “Regenerative Green Neighbourhoods” pillar in the Driving Urban Transitions to a Sustainable Future (DUT). What are the dilemmas\, do’s and don’ts around this pillar in theory but more importantly practice? Which are the policy- and practice recommendations and the cross-cutting issues? Meet guests with experience from research\, innovation and policy across and beyond Europe. Attendees will be invited to JPI Urban Europe’s Slack space for further self-organised exchange.

Increased efficiency in resource use alone comes with risks of rebound effects\, hence reuse is not enough and a reduction of consumption is needed to keep within the ecological ceiling. In turn\, transition pathways towards regenerative cities and urban areas are needed\, in order to be active upcyclists and drive a planetary economy. As boundaries and operational limits are set\, this furthers redistribution among practices and actors to foster sustainable urbanisation. By developing and improving blue-green infrastructure (BGI) and nature-based solutions (NBS) overall urban liveability\, public health\, and urban robustness may be considerably improved together with cutting-edge approaches to clean technology and entrepreneurial creativity. In combination with an increased circularity in urban economies\, this is a crucial transition pathway to drive urban transformation to facilitate genuinely regenerative places. Hence\, cities and urban areas are attractive starting points for making the global transformation to liveable societies\, circular economies\, and planetary health. \nRegenerative Green Neighbourhoods is one of three transition pathways in the Driving Urban Transition to a Sustainable Future (DUT) partnership programme currently under development by JPI Urban Europe. Focus in this Urban Lunch Talk will be given to identify do’s\, don’ts and dilemmas of the Doughnut Economy model on local scale\, relating to nature-based solutions and circular economies. \nWhat is meant by a dilemma-driven approach?\nEveryone who is somehow involved in city development knows about the wicked issues that emerge from strategic decision making in this context. In a changing\, interconnected and hyper-complex environment urban practitioners and strategists often encounter dilemmas (or even tri-lemmas). In its simple definition\, a dilemma means having to decide between two or more alternatives that seem equally desirable or undesirable. However\, dilemmas may also mean difficult situations where the path taken is not clearly beneficent and the need to compromise continuously appears. In other words\, typical implementation\, transition\, and innovation situations. Dilemmas occur where the level of uncertainty is too high to rely on a pre-calculated action plan. \nGuests and participants are welcome to share ideas and experiences on questions like:\n– Have you encountered any dilemmas related to this topic?\n– Can you reflect on a “do” and/or a “don’t” based on this dilemma-experience? This could be process/method related.\n– Do you have a policy- or practice recommendation? \nMeet the guests:\n\n\nDr. Volker Coors\, Hochschule für Technik Stuttgart from the project IN-SOURCE: Integrated analysis and modelling for the management of sustainable urban food-water-energy (FWE) resources. IN-SOURCE helps decision makers (such as governments\, utilities\, developers\, investors) identify and visualize FWE systems and their interrelations for urban strategic planning investments. The project is active in  New York (USA)\, Vienna (Austria) and Ludwigsburg Region (Germany).\nDr. Maria Beatrice Andreucci works at the Department of “Planning Design Technology of Architecture”\, “Sapienza” University of Roma (IT)\, and is member of the steering board of Urban Europe Research Alliance UERA)\, where she leads the working group “Urban Economies and Welfare”. She holds a Ph.D. in Environmental Design and an M.B.A (INSEAD). She is a registered architect and an economist who focuses her professional activity\, research and teaching on the application of environmental technological design and environmental economics theories\, principles and methods on urban design\, architecture\, and landscape architecture projects. She will launch\, in  May 2021\, the book “Rethinking Sustainability Towards a Regenerative Economy” (Andreucci\, Marvuglia\, Baltov & Hansen\, Future City\, Springer Nature). She is a member of the COST Actions “RESTORE”\, “Circular City”\, and  “PED-EU-NET”.\nDr. Thomas Nehls\, Technische Universität Berlin from the Vertical Green project. The project re-develops “vertical greening” of urban areas according to stakeholder needs and different architectures and climates. How do create positive impacts to as many urban neighbourhoods as possible? The project is active in Berlin (Germany)\, Ljubljana (Slovenia)\, Taipei (Chinese Taipei) and Vienna (Austria).\nDaniela Rizzi\, Senior Officer for Nature-based Solutions and Biodiversity at ICLEI Europe – Local Governments for Sustainability\,has been promoting capacity-building\, peer-learning and partnerships between civil society\, businesses and all levels of government through the UrbanByNature programme to help cities plan and deliver nature-based solutions. Daniela has a doctoral degree in Landscape Architecture and Planning and is currently involved in EU-funded projects about measuring NBS impact on climate change adaptation\, inclusive urban regeneration\, urban governance through research and demonstration actions within urban living labs in Europe\, China and Latin America (see for example Connecting Nature\, CLEVER Cities\, REGREEN\, CONEXUS. ICLEI Europe recently joined a coalition of 31 stakeholders calling on the European Commission to deliver an ambitious EU strategy for a Sustainable Built Environment (SSBE) as part of its implementation of the Circular Economy Action Plan. ICLEI hosts its World Congress in Sweden this week (13 – 15 April).\nDaniel Black\, Director at “Daniel Black + Associates” and TRUUD (Tackling Root causes of Unhealthy Urban Development) at University of Bristol works to bridge the gap between research and practice to achieve impact and is part of the WASTE FEW ULL project. WASTE FEW ULL contributes with policy decision support models for economically viable waste reduction\, rethinking waste as a resource as well as establishes entrepreneurship networks in each of the project’s Urban Living Labs to continue working after the formal end of the project. The project is active in Cape Town (South Africa)\, Rotterdam (The Netherlands)\, Campinas (Brazil) and Bristol (United Kingdom).\nJohannes Riegler (host) is the Stakeholder Involvement Officer in JPI Urban Europe and manager of the AGORA – JPI Urban Europe’s Stakeholder Involvement Platform to build capacities to co-creating pathways for urban transitions.

SUMMARY:Urban Lunch Talk #18: 15-minute cities - Do’s\, don’ts and dilemmas
DESCRIPTION:Welcome to an #UrbanLunchTalk about the 15-minute cities pillar in the partnership Driving Urban Transitions to a Sustainable Future (DUT). To this talk\, each invited guest brings one dilemma\, one “do” and one “don’t” to the table – with regards to realising 15 min cities. Participants are welcome with their input via Menti. Attendees will be invited to JPI Urban Europe’s Slack channel for further self-organised exchange after the talk. \n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\nYou are currently viewing a placeholder content from YouTube.

Amplified by urban vulnerabilities and weaknesses which have been highlighted by the COVID-19 pandemic\, rethinking urban areas along the principles of the 15 Minute City has been illustrated as one central pathway towards sustainability and liveability. The 15 Minute City is one priority of the upcoming Driving Urban Transitions Partnership which JPI Urban Europe is currently designing. The partnership proposes to follow the vision of the 15-minute city as a way towards a holistic\, people-oriented\, and challenge-driven perspective for the redesign of urban mobility and planning. \nFacing the climate crisis\, we need to take action now and cannot wait longer to find “perfect solutions”. Instead\, taking measures into implementation and practice must be at the top of the list. Although many technological solutions to drastically lower GHG-emissions already exist\, the institutional and regulatory surrounding is often lagging or simply not in place yet\, thus blocking a shift towards sustainable individual behaviour. \nBut it isn’t that simple. Everyone who is somehow involved in city development knows about the wicked issues that emerge from strategic decision making in this context. In a changing\, interconnected and hyper-complex environment urban practitioners and strategists often encounter dilemmas; having to decide between two or more alternatives that seem equally desirable or undesirable. Dilemmas occur where the level of uncertainty is too high to rely on a pre-calculated action plan. \n\nWhat are the dilemmas involved in realising 15 min cities – where lies the friction and the conflict of trade-offs?\nWhat traps can or should we avoid – what are the “don’ts”?\nWhich are the enablers – the “do’s”?\n\n  \nMeet the guests\n\nGuntram Geser works with the SimpliCITY project\, supported in the JPI Urban Europe call Making Cities work. SimpliCITY explores digital services and incentive design for smart sustainable communities. The project boosts the digital competences of the urban communities in Salzburg\, Uppsala and three follower-cities in living a sustainable lifestyle. One aim is to raise awareness for a “sustainable city lifestyle” and increase the number of engaged urban citizens by developing methods and tools for nudging a community towards the consumption of regional sustainability services (RSUS). Focus is on bike mobility services\, local production and consumption and digital inclusion services.\nAngela Muth from tbw research (AT) is the project leader of the project OptiMaaS: Optimized Mobility as a Service – Holistic mobility solutions for the urban periphery. OptiMaaS is too part of the Making Cities Work call and aims at reducing hurdles for implementing better multimodal\, environmentally friendly mobility services in the urban periphery and improving the social acceptance of Mobility as a Service (MaaS) offers. MaaS-Systems are traffic services including public transport in combination with other transport modes (taxi\, car-sharing\, bike-sharing etc.). This combination is facilitated using IT-Platforms that bundle existing mobility offers.\nGiuseppe Mella is a senior officer of the European Policies Department of the City of Venice\, Italy. He is the project and communication manager of European projects in the field of international cooperation (Asia Urbs with China and India)\, RTD and innovation (FP6\, FP7\, Horizon2020\, Interreg IV C\, Urbact)\, sustainable mobility (Alpine Space\, Interreg)\, environment (IEE) and culture (Culture 2007-2013\, Creative Europe).\nDr. Nina Mostegl works at the Salzburg Institute for Regional Planning and housing in the Energy and Climate department as an interdisciplinary smart city expert. She advises and manages the Smart City Initiative of the city of Salzburg for which she develops and coordinates (national and international) implementation projects\, organizes (local and national) information and awareness-raising events and supervises the general Smart City dissemination activities to achieve the energy and climate targets outlined in the Masterplan 2025. Further\, together with her SIR colleague Helmut Strasser\, she manages the Smart Cities Network Austria\, an exchange platform for the seven largest cities in Austria\, which aims to support and accelerate innovation processes in cities and strengthens joint learning. In this context\, she is also involved in the national consultation process of the Fit4UrbanMission – a research program of Austrian climate ministry that specifically targets cities and aims to support them to participate in the Horizon Europe Mission “100 Climate-Neutral Cities by 2030” and to start the transformation process towards climate neutrality.\nJohannes Riegler (host) is the Stakeholder Involvement Officer in JPI Urban Europe and manager of the AGORA – JPI Urban Europe’s Stakeholder Involvement Platform to build capacities to co-creating pathways for urban transitions. He also works with matters of internationalization beyond Europe and the conceptual work around urban living labs. Johannes is an urbanist and geographer and conducted his studies in Brussels\, Vienna\, Copenhagen\, Madrid\, Budapest and Klagenfurt.\n\n———————————————————————————————————–\nThis event is part of JPI Urban Europe’s series of Urban Lunch Talks around the pillars (areas of priority) in the Driving Urban Transitions to a Sustainable Future (DUT) partnership. \n \n> Previous Urban Lunch Talks\n> More events\n> AGORA Thematic Dialogue | Pathways towards 15MinuteCities \n  \n  \n
