    What if your city was ready for Plan Einstein?

    Not every city gets to benefit from EU funding to carry out an Urban Innovative Action. Which makes it all the more interesting when the lessons learned from such a project are found to be usable in any urban context - and without needing to wait for investment finance. 

     

    This is the message of Plan Einstein Academy, a two-year Innovation Transfer Network supported by URBACT. The network directly supported five European cities to plan the transfer of the innovative ‘Plan Einstein’ model of local social cohesion from Utrecht (Netherlands) to their own specific context. But in doing so, it has also demonstrated how other cities can do the same: whatever their characteristics and context.
