    RU:RBAN Second Wave will transfer an inclusive, flexible and friendly methodology to the Urbact Local Groups of the 5 networking cities (Rome, Lead Partner, and the cities of Alexandroupolis, Algeciras, Carlow and Split) in order to support them in the management of urban gardens within the EU Urban Agenda and the related Sustainable Development Goals. It will do so through an adaptive approach for European networking cities different from each other in size, climate, cultural heritage and socio-economic background. An approach that fosters the inclusion and engagement of local stakeholders, the collaboration of civil society, academic bodies, public actors and associations for the cooperative management of urban resources. The four newcomer cities will follow a clear Transfer Roadmap that will last till December 2022, adopting and adapting the 3 project transfer elements: Capacity building, Vocational training (Gardeniser) and Governance. Let’s see together some of the main points of interest in their RU:RBAN journey.

  • Kommunen profitieren von mehr Austausch und Experimenten – Interview mit Prof. Reiner Schmidt vom Netzwerk „Gemeinsam für das Quartier“

    Die Vernetzungsinitiative „Gemeinsam für das Quartier“ ist ein im Rahmen der Nationalen Stadtentwicklungspolitik gefördertes Projekt. Ganz im Sinne der URBACT-Methode ist ihr Ziel, neue Partnerschaften zu befördern – zu Gunsten einer aktivierenden, kooperativen und gemeinwesenorientierten Entwicklung von Städten und ihren Quartieren. In diesem Bereich setzen sich bereits viele unterschiedliche Akteure tatkräftig ein: Etablierte Protagonisten wie Kommunen, die lokale Wirtschaft oder Immobilienunternehmen genauso wie Akteure aus Zivilgesellschaft, Kreativwirtschaft, Kultur und Soziokultur sowie Intermediäre. Ziel der Initiative ist es, die verschiedenen Akteure miteinander zu vernetzen, Allianzen vor Ort zu bilden und einen bundesweiten Austausch zu fördern und zu kultivieren. Wir sprachen mit Prof. Reiner Schmidt von der Initiative STADT ALS CAMPUS e.V. über die Vernetzungsinitiative, die er gemeinsam mit dem Deutschen Verband für Wohnungswesen, Städtebau und Raumordnung moderiert.
