Sharing knowledge is as the core of what we do as a network.
With thousands of experts across our cities, decades of project expertise, and our staff of specialists, knowledge is not something that we’re short on.
On this page you can find the helpful resources that Eurocities has developed to aid the work of cities – anything from research, policy positions and reports to case studies, videos, podcasts and practical tools, discover resources that inform, inspire and support action on today’s urban challenges.
Eurocities creates these resources, often through EU-funded projects or our own working groups and forums, always in concert with cities at the cutting-edge of their fields, as well as other expert partners, to meet the needs that local leaders and technical staff have expressed.
These tools can never replace the in-person learning and networking that Eurocities is famous for. However, we hope they will serve to allow the knowledge generated by these in-person experiences to ripple out for those to whom the privilege of direct involvement has not been available. Whatever it is you’re looking for, we are confident that you will find it here. Buckle your seatbelt, and let’s dive in.
