  • RU:RBAN HAS ITS OWN TRANSFER STORY: HOW TO IMPLEMENT URBAN GARDENS

    The philosophy behind URBACT Transfer Networks is embedded in its name: transferring a city’s Good Practice to a group of cities that have adhered to the possibility of adopting (and adapting) such Good Practice and make it their own. All in the spirit of sharing knowledge and experience with the ultimate goal to improve quality of life, in its manifold facets, in our cities. Every Transfer Network is supposed to produce a “transfer story” which is, in not so many words, the tale of how the good practice has been transferred to other EU cities, which have been the challenges faced and the opportunities emerged from the process.

  • The importance of defining the collaboration structure and communicating in the case of public-civil partnership –Platform for Lazareti

    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. It was at the same time hard work on bettering the communication and decision-making protocols and processes between the NGOs associated with the platforms but also hard work in building trust and relationship 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. Ana Cvjetkovic from the Platform for Lazareti tells us about the main goals, accomplishments, and obstacles and gives us an invaluable insight in what is one of the most intense processes of organizational development and decision-making.

  • Holzmarkt Berlin: Εξισορρόπηση της δημιουργικής ελευθερίας, της οικονομικής επιβίωσης και της αστικής ανάπτυξης από τη βάση προς τα πάνω

    Ήταν το 2007. Οι χώροι, οι οποίοι παρέμειναν άδειοι για πολύ καιρό, κατά μήκος του ποταμού Spree στο νότιο τμήμα της περιοχής Friedrichshain του Βερολίνου χρησιμοποιούνταν από μια σειρά ενδιάμεσων πολιτιστικών χρήσεων. Τα νυχτερινά κέντρα όπως το «Bar 25», το «YAAM» και το « Maria am Ostbahnhof» άκμασαν σε πρώην βιομηχανικά κτίρια κατά μήκος των όχθων του ποταμού που ανήκαν κυρίως στην εταιρεία δημοσίων έργων της πόλης.
