💪 At the recent meeting in Stuttgart, the MECOG-CE team made an important step forward by forming study clusters. What will they focus on? Project partners are now divided into 5️⃣ study clusters according to their choice of the most desirable best practice based on regional stakeholders’ meetings in each metropolitan area. The project team also engaged in discussions about potential pilot actions to enhance metropolitan cooperation. The final study clusters will be focused on these tools: ✅ Food districts, lighthouse partner (supervisor): Città metropolitana di Torino ✅ Prototyping academies, lighthouse partner: GZM. Górnośląsko-Zagłębiowska Metropolia ✅ Mobility and planning/Transport associations, lighthouse partner: Verband Region Stuttgart ✅ Warsaw Metropolitan Association (developing opinions and workshops/trainings), lighthouse partner: #MetropoliaWarszawska ✅ Semi structures and dialogues for improvement of cooperation – Municipal Neighbourhood Forum, lighthouse partner: Joint Spatial Planning Department #BerlinBrandenburg and Questionnaire among mayors, lighthouse partner: City of #Brno). 💙 The commitment and expertise demonstrated by all partners signal a promising future for metropolitan areas in Central Europe .
