    Mesta mestom: Center mobilnosti Maribor

    Mobilnostni centri lahko nudijo podporno okolje za razvoj in promocijo trajnostne mobilnosti v mestih. Lahko pa so tudi pomembni generatorji sprememb potovalnih navad prebivalstva in ambasadorji zdravega ter aktivnega načina življenja. Nastopajo kot koordinatorji deležnikov na področju mobilnosti za boljšo usklajenost in izvajanje ukrepov na ravni mesta in širše. S svojimi aktivnostmi osveščajo in izobražujejo prebivalce o pomenu trajnostne mobilnosti in dajejo priložnost ostalim transportnim alternativam.

  • Vic: working (and walking) with the Local Group: a healthy step forward

    Two main challenges in relation to the HEALTHY CITIES network have emerged for the city of Vic. The first one is the Integration of Urban Green Areas and the recovery of the area called “Puig dels Jueus”, following the integrated Master Urban Plan with its cross-sectorial approach and holistic vision. The second challenge is to adjust the indicators and the methodology to perform the health impact assessment of this action.
    This represents a regeneration project, with a high content of urban planning, but Vic wants to achieve a cross-sectional cross-cutting approach. The project will allow discussions about mobility, environment, services, land use or hosting cultural and sport activities. Managing the Local Group is a big challenge, but the working sessions are already showing exciting outcomes

  • AHA-élmény Poznanban, az Oktatási Innovációs Hálózat megszületése

    „A kreativitás a kapcsolatok létrehozásáról szól és több függ az együttműködéstől, mint az egyéni erőfeszítésekről” Ken Robinson, Elveszteni az eszünket: A kreativitás tanulása.
     
    „Miért nem próbáltunk ki hosszabb távú együttműködést az ON BOARD projekt megkezdése előtt?” tette fel a kérdést a Poznan által koordinált ON BOARD projektbe bevont tanár. „Miért nem csináltuk ezt korábban?”

  • The importance of defining the collaboration structure and communicating in the case of a public-civil partnership – Youth Center Dubrovnik

    For the last year and a half, Platform for Lazareti and Youth Center in Dubrovnik were working on establishing community centers based on the civil-public partnership. At the same time, they were working on bettering the communication and collaboration between the NGOs, but also with the representatives of the City of Dubrovnik. For now, both of the cases are successful examples, and a part of it is due to the knowledge they've received during the „Active NGOs“ project and collaboration with the URBACT lead and ad-hoc experts. GjinoSutic and Anja Markovic, a small but important fraction of the Youth Center are giving us their insight about the process and new developments in the case of the Youth Center as well as their unique approach to governance models.

  • Cities in international perspective: Magdeburg

    In the Welcoming International Talent project, seven cities aim at sharing knowledge, improving policies and implementing best practice projects in their international student cities. But why are these specific cities participating in the WIT project? Each city will explain what they can contribute and what they would like to learn from this knowledge exchange. This time: Magdeburg, Germany.
