Oulu näyttää mallia digitaalisten palvelujen kehittämisessä

URBACT-ohjelman DigiPlace -hankkeessa edistetään digitaalisia ratkaisuja pienissä ja keskisuurissa kaupungeissa. Ratkaisuja haetaan hankkeeseen osallistuvien kaupungin omista lähtökohdista ja kehittämiskohteina on aihealueita, joilla digitaalisuus tuo lisäarvoa. Kun lisäarvo ja sitä tukevat tavoitteet on tunnistettu, kaupungit laativat tavoitteisiin johtavan toteutussuunnitelman (Integrated Action Plan, IAP).  Varsinainen toteutus jää hankkeen jälkeen tehtäväksi.

Resourceful Cities : lokale dynamiek, mondiale gevolgen.

De circulaire economie staat vandaag centraal in het Belgische en Europese overheidsbeleid. Het wordt gezien als een potentiële vector voor industriële herontwikkeling en als een sleutelsector voor duurzame ontwikkeling (CPDT, 2020). Maar wat is de circulaire economie in werkelijkheid? De circulaire economie is een economisch en industrieel systeem dat tot doel heeft producten terug te winnen en te recycleren, er zoveel mogelijk materiaal uit te halen, ze opnieuw te verpakken en ze opnieuw in te brengen in een nieuw productie- en waardecreatieproces (Eyckmans, 2015).

Keďže Preston mal záujem sa v tejto oblasti naďalej zlepšovať a šíriť tak svoje poznatky ďalej, rozhodol sa pre účasť v sieti URBACT Procure.

Cities, energy and children: the future of our planet!

Urb-En Pact (urban energy pact) is an URBACT network that gathers 8 european cities with the same objective : becoming a net-zero energy territory by 2050. The method used to do so is simple : increasing the production of “green” and local energy while decreasing our energy consumption. Easier said than done but the common determination of all the partners and our skateholders is a key factor of success.  

Cities are in the driving seat to tackle the climate change. It is about the future of our planet and of all those who will inhabit it.
