We kick off with the final event of the JPI Urban Europe ENUAC call: “Innovations for Managing Sustainable Urban Accessibility”.

21 May 11:00-12:30
Join our session, “Trust Me, I’m a Change Maker” (1.2.1), for inspiring insights on how to collaborate in a difficult political climate.

In this session, we’ll explore how trust is the secret sauce of successful urban collaboration, whether in international politics or your local neighbourhood. With the world facing tough challenges like breaking free from fossil fuels and managing resources, the road to progress can be tricky – especially when economic setbacks or shifting priorities throw a wrench in the works. City leaders, researchers, and activists will share their insights on handling trust issues in high-pressure situations, across language barriers, and when urgent change is needed. Get ready for a mix of real-life stories, interactive introspection, and a deep dive into how serious gaming and drama labs might just be the future of collaboration!

We look forward to seeing you there!
