Expected results:
In addition to an initial Baseline Study,describing every city’s challenges and points of departure for improvement, the URBACT project will deliver more outputs: per city a Peer Review report with recommendations, factsheets, two case studies on the role of students and on partnership for placemaking, two Politicians’ Meetings, communicationitems and a final report. The project should help in shaping concrete solutions and finding the necessary funding.
