  • Lublin: A Municipality co-designing a long-term Local Strategy with local and European stakeholders

    “Mapping, mapping and one more time: mapping!” Data collection, interpretation and use has become one of the most important needs in Lublin. Not only Lisbon Strategy – an URBACT Good Practice to be adapted within the framework of Com.unity.Lab – can help this enchanting eastern city of Poland to develop a more meaningful and integrated ”Lublin 2030 Strategy”, but also the experiences from other cities involved in this Transfer Network… Even local stakeholders like Lubelska Grupa Badawcza (that we interviewed in situ) have a crucial role towards a more participatory city. At least this is the opinion of Anna Szadkowska and Magdelena Gnyp-Scigocka, experts in the Municipality Social Participation Office and coordinators of Com.Unity.Lab in Lublin.

  • INT-HERIT, AN IMPLEMENTATION PROJECT

    Travel Diary

    INT-HERIT is a network of cities that share and learn together in the implementation scenario of their cultural heritage management strategies. A type of methodology poorly known and tested for the first time by the URBACT Programme. Both for URBACT and for the other actors involved (cities, experts, interested parties...) it was an unknown landscape. What has happened along the way, what lessons are drawn from the INT-HERIT network, especially from the eyes of a navigator placed in the internal team of the Leading Partner of the Consortium? A journey in several steps from handwritten notes in the travel notebook...

  • How to harvest the community impact within urban policies? – lessons learnt from the Come in! Masterclass Event Part I.

    Organising a community-led festival along the main principles of the good practise “Budapest100” is the task for Come in! partner cities. Organising the festival whilst applying co-creation techniques with both volunteers and residents and thus sharing ownership is the goal. The challenge for partner cities is how to accelerate the community impact generated by the good practice in other policy fields.
