Are you interested in a guideline through the jungle of support measures and European Commission programmes? This yearly mapping of R&I initiatives by the European Commission was recently published. The report maps city related actions, initiatives, platforms and networks funded under the Horizon 2020 Framework Programme, including JPI Urban Europe initiatives and the proposed urban partnership Driving Urban Transitions to a Sustainable Future (DUT).
Addressing urban issues is crucial for solving grand societal and planetary challenges in the contemporary world. While goals and strategies, such as Agenda 2030 and its Sustainable Development Goals are global ambitions, enhancing sustainability and livability on a local urban scale is key. This workshop series aims at developing visions on just, sustainable and livable urban areas in Africa, discussing the pathways to make those visions a reality and how international cooperation can support local urban transitions.
Fall is here! We are joining several conferences and meeting spaces to exchange with stakeholders from civil society, business, cities and academia. We hope to meet you at 1) The International Transdisciplinary Conference, 2) The 19th European Week of Regions and Cities and 3) The 20th European Roundtable Sustainable Consumption and Production. Read about our sessions, key note and participatory lab in these events!

We aim to co-design the programme together with problem owners and urban actors and therefor invited city representatives to join Focus Groups and help shape this multi-year programme. You can now access the report on these focus groups workshops.
“The synthesis you need is about how to integrate very different types of knowledges” Listen to Jonas Bylund, R&I Officer in JPI Urban Europe, featured in the #UrbanTakeAway series by SLU Urban Futures.
