General Project Information
Programme: “Europe for Citizens 2007-2013”
Duration: 1st July 2007- 30th June 2008
Objective: The main aim of this project is to establish 5 Local Regeneration Forums in 5 different cities. These local forums should be composed by citizens, professionals, politicians, in general, all the stakeholders involved in the urban regeneration process of the area. The objective is to promote citizen’s participation in the urban development of their cities and also to create a transnational exchange and capacity-building programme in order to boost participation at the European level, therefore creating a sense of European citizenship.
Tools: In order to realise this overall goal the project has developed an online platform that will enable the interaction between the different local forums, but also with the European level. This platform will also create the online resources/materials necessary to empower members of Local Regeneration Forums (LRF) to connect to EU policies and programmes.
A transnational exchange programme will also be organised in order to attain these objectives. The Action Learning Methodology will be developed in order to ensure a full involvement of the 5 partners and of all the stakeholders at the local level. This programme will include the participation of over 40 key actors from the partner cities, and it will be focusing on one priority identified by the local regeneration forums: “marginalised youth”. The idea is to have an overview of the situation, problems, policies, etc, regarding young people in your cities, and at the same time, we will try to provide a European overview: what are the priorities at the EU level, which kind of policies and programmes are being implemented at the
