The URBACT programme has launched 5 December 2016 a Good Practice call for the ‘URBACT Good Practice City’ label which will be open until 31 March 2017.  Eligible beneficiaries for the call are all “cities” and “eligible beneficiaries” from EU 28 Member States, Norway and Switzerland. The call is open to all themes.

On 30 January 2017 from 3.00 PM to 6.30 PM, the presentation event of the call will take place in Brussels at the Conference Centre Albert Borschette (you can register HERE). The URBACT Secretariat will explain why this call is interesting for cities and how they can benefit from it. The URBACT Secretariat will also provide you with all the necessary information about the selection criteria and how to get involved in the call. The meeting will profit from the presence of representatives from the European Commission.

This call is the first stage of a two-stage process. After the selection of “URBACT Good Practice Cities” and approval by the URBACT Monitoring Committee in May 2017, a call for Transfer networks will be launched in September 2017 with the Lead Cities drawn from the “Good Practice City” pool.
