Our CoP CITIES will have its own stand at the Cities Forum in Turin. Here we will exhibit recent work on cities, while also welcoming all community members to come by for a chat.

Next to that, the B3 Territorial Development Unit of the JRC will be actively present at the Cities Forum 2023 with a session titled ‘The role and challenges of small- and medium-sized urban areas in bringing Europe closer to citizens and driving the green and just transition’. This will be the occasion to launch the new ‘Policy atlas of sustainable urban development for small urban areas’. We will also contribute to the session ‘How can cities build their capacities on sustainable urban development under the European Urban Initiative?’.
