Dear readers,
Connective Cities’ dialogue events and workshops create a solid basis for local changes in cities, but there is still a long journey until ideas for projects are actually implemented. The project partnership between the Hanseatic City of Rostock and the City of Bizerte in Tunisia, that are now cooperating on a concrete waste management project, shows how Connective Cities supports municipalities on the way from developing an idea to implementing the project.
Another journey that we would like to highlight starts in Cape Town and, as a new Good Practice, provides an opportunity to take a look on “The other side of the fence” - to learn how informal settlements can take the path towards sustainable development through re-thinking their relationships with nature.
To encourage the “first steps”, Connective Cities is organising several workshops for urban practitioners during summer and autumn. We believe that the cumulative effect of these events will further enable concrete changes to take place in cities.
We wish you an exciting reading,
Your Connective Cities Team
