The UK Infoday took place in London on 2-3  February 2015. Participants were able to learn about URBACT, Network experiences and about URBACT III.

The infoday included a variety of guests from all over the UK such as city representatives, managing authorities and others interested in sustainable urban development policies.  Participants had the opportunity to learn about URBACT, the programme, URBACT II results, and meet and interact with other participants. 

On 2 February, the session of the infoday was reserved for partners and USLG member of ongoing networks. Partners were able to echange their experiences and discuss their Local Action Plans as well as ways of improvement.

On 3 February, the infoday was open to all UK cities and key urban players. The session was opened by an introduction of the Department for Communities and Local Government. It was then followed by an introduction to the URBACT programme and URBACT III, which gave an overview on how cities can participate in the call. Furthermore, representatives from URBACT Networks in the UK discussed their exchanges and experiences.
