    Residents of the Future, 2nd Quarterly Report: "It's time to start testing, testing, testing"

    The period of the 2nd Quarterly Report included the transnational meeting (TNM) that happed and Saint-Quentin, France. This TNM was planned to be dense in content, to prepare cities for being more ready to work at local level.
    At this period, we also had a significant work at URBACT Local Groups (ULGs) level. Cities started their journey on ideation and testing actions.
    The project communication is now very active, with a strong presence on the social media!
