  • Future Agencies - the ALT/BAU offspring

    The famous ALT/BAU babies are not the only offspring of the ALT/BAU Transfer Network. In the ALT/BAU network, the aim was to transfer the URBACT Good Practice from Chemnitz - the Housing Agency for shrinking cities- to the network partner cities and to adapt its methods to the local conditions. Along the way, our partners in Riga and Turin came to the realization that setting up an agency as such was not way to go in their contexts. But four partners founded or are founding an agency similar to the one in Chemnitz. Here the transfer becomes really tangible.
