URBACT is a programme of the European Union which promotes sustainable urban development, enabling cities to collaboratively develop, through the transfer of good practices, solutions to different urban challenges. In this way, the programme reinforce the role played by municipalities addressing the social, economic and environmental increasingly complex changes. URBACT III (2014-2020), within which this project is framed, contributes to achieve the objectives of Europe 2020, providing a mechanism to develop knowledge and skills to all actors involved in the implementation of urban policy. It aims to build stronger, more cohesive and vibrant European cities and to address emerging urban problems by proposing a smart, sustainable and inclusive growth, which are the three key priorities of Europe 2020.
