Call provides cities with opportunity to fund partnerships – new deadline 4 March!

The International Urban Cooperation Programme has announced a deadline extension for its latest round of city to city partnerships. The initiative will see European cities with 100,000 or more inhabitants matched with international counterparts facing similar sustainability challenges from Argentina, Brazil, Canada, Chile, China, Colombia, Japan, Mexico, Peru and the United States. Representatives from each city will take part in study tours, staff exchanges, trainings, seminars, etc. and will develop a local action plan to drive sustainable urban development in the selected area. Several Climate Alliance members have been able to take advantage of past calls including Mannheim (DE), Frankfurt (DE), Essen (DE), Hamburg (DE) and Graz (AT). The deadline for submissions for the latest round is now 4 March 2019.
