  • From Vision to Transformative Actions for the SDGs: co-creation of integrated actions in Manresa

    Around one hour and a half from Barcelona by train, in a hilly area of the Bages county, is Manresa - a small-sized city with around 78 000 inhabitants - one of several partners of similar size in the Global Goals for Cities network. On 21 April, I had the chance to stop by and attend one of Manresa’s URBACT Local Group (ULG) meetings organised by the local coordination team. Here, I share a few highlights of how the ULG and the participatory process is helping to shape the priorities of the Manresa 2030 Agenda and the integrated action plan that is currently in the making.

  • Área Metropolitana do Porto

    A Área Metropolitana do Porto (AMP) cobre um vasto território com uma população dispersa. Isto oferece uma grande diversidade, resultando numa área de grande beleza, indicada para viver, investir ou fazer turismo. No entanto, também encerra desafios de mobilidade e uma grande dependência do tráfego automóvel, questões que a RiConnect quer ajudar a ultrapassar através de uma melhor integração da mobilidade nas áreas urbanas.
