URBACT Good Practices

Awakening a town’s volunteering potential

Using art, green and citizens in the transformation of urban areas

Coordinating effective, small-scale natural water retention measures 

Promoting cycling as a means of commuting in the city 

Using collaborative planning and partnership to integrate bottom-up local input with top-down strategic priorities

Improving public spaces through solutions co-designed with local actors and communities 

Increasing physical activity of the elderly and creating healthier communities 

A clear vision and a participatory approach are more important than a masterplan for urban regeneration.

Creating bridges between homeless and local communities
