    ULG Coordinators of all seven RU:RBAN cities get together... online!

    The COVID-19 pandemic the world is presently facing has changed most working methods in every professional sector.  Traditional meetings seem to be something of the past and now we “meet” online, just as the ULG Coordinators of the RU:RBAN network did on 5th May to discuss the points of a pretty dense agenda: the calendar of each city’s next ULG meetings and the topics of their discussions, how the drafting of their regulations is progressing, the participation of ULG members and stakeholders to the bilateral meetings that will take place in May/June between Rome and each of the partner cities, what are the challenges ULGs are facing and how to make their involvement more effective.

  • A NEW ROLE FOR URBAN GARDENS IN OUR CITIES?

    Can urban gardens be developed as meeting points for modern local communities, or are we " light-years away" from such novelty in terms of urban development practices? An answer to this question could be found in RU:RBAN: urban agriculture, nowadays in the shape of urban gardens managed by citizens, is stepping away from being seen only as the practice of growing vegetables within the municipal territory of our cities.
