A funding opportunity for creating climate neutral and resilient cities
The aim of this call for proposals is to support transnational research and/or innovation projects that help cities tackle urban challenges and transition towards a climate neutral and resilient future for all.
Projects should contribute to one or more of our three thematic areas:
- The Transition Pathways
- 15-minute City
- Circular Urban Economies and Positive Energy Districts.
Research organisations, companies and commercial organisations, urban government authorities, consumers and civil society representatives and actors from the culture and creative sectors can apply. A project must have at least three partners from three different countries participating in the call and include a municipality or local authority. The call welcomes a wide range of scientific disciplines such as strategic urban research, applied urban research and urban innovation.
The Driving Urban Transitions (DUT) Partnership to a sustainable future is an intergovernmental research and innovation programme addressing key challenges of urban transitions. It is co-funded within the European Research and Innovation (R&I) Framework Programme, Horizon Europe.
Tip: Make use of the networks created by the Swedish strategic innovation program Viable Cities and the EU initiative NetZeroCities run by Climate KIC!
