The third and last URBACT Call for Proposals for the creation of up to 19 new Thematic Networks is now closed. The URBACT Monitoring Committee will decide on the approval of projects for the Development phase on 23 April 2012. The results will be posted on the URBACT website.

Thematic Networks approved through this Call will focus on fostering exchange and learning among European cities, drawing lessons from these exchanges, and building new tools and policies for integrated and sustainable urban development. Beyond the consolidation and dissemination of the practical knowledge drawn from the transnational networking, partner cities will also commit to work with local stakeholders to develop a Local Action Plan and improve their local policies.

While addressing one of the eight topics defined for this call, partner cities will also be requested to consider the three following challenges:

  • How to manage urban development in the context of the economic and financial crisis
  • How to foster integrated and sustainable approaches to urban development
  • How to develop efficient partnerships and multi-level governance processes
