Portrait: Alison Partridge, "My top goal is to help cities"
Edited on
09 October 2017Alison Partidge, Lead Expert for the new URBACT project Esimec, has made a career of working for European development projects. For 20 years now, she has been helping local authorities and other key players (NGOs, universities, etc.) to implement projects receiving structural funding. She has been convinced by URBACT's goals and approach to dissemination, and she tells us why she takes her role very seriously, sharing her vision of one of today's key challenges: post-downturn economic recover for medium-size cities. To learn more on her aims and objectives, we invite you to read her online portrait.
URBACT is an open community made up of city practitioners and policy makers who are passionate about their work. They are working hands-on in the field, facing a variety of challenges and situations, bringing progress to urban policies on a daily basis. You can find in the 'URBACT People' section on our website a few portraits to give you insight into some of those involved in the programme. Discover Alison Partridge's portrait as well as for example the portraits of Kim Griffiths who is Director of employment programmes for Liverpool programmes for Liverpool and partner for the CoNet project or Bruno Bourg Broc, Mayor of Châlons-en-Champagne in France and partner for the CityRegion.Net project.
