our challenge

European urban ecosystems are under pressure, and it is only the collaborative effort of societal actors that can reduce the intensity and impact of this pressure on the social life and the economy. Due to the density in the cities, the environment’s capacity to accommodate the concentration of waste and pollution lowers. Natural eco-cycles are being disrupted by lack of natural soil and wetlands. 
When looked into the innovation capacities of the cities, HEIs are mentioned to be at the “forefront” in training the well-educated workforce, as well as helping implement urban innovation strategies. 

OUR  approach

The major aim of the project is to empower HEIs to participate in joint actions to tackle challenges in their respective urban regions by creating and actively engaging urban communities of practice, as well as developing and implementing multidisciplinary learning interventions for university students and staff in developing real-life solutions to the pressing urban challenges.
