European Urban Initiative launches Portico: a gateway to urban learning in the EU
The European Urban Initiative (EUI) is launching Portico, a new knowledge sharing and community platform for sustainable urban development in the EU, on 10 October during the 2023 European Week of Regions and Cities in Brussels.
The new platform is being launched in partnership with us and a range of initiatives, programmes and organisations supporting urban development under EU Cohesion Policy. It combines knowledge and resources from EUI and partners on productive, green and just cities, as well as key tools for putting policy into practice.
Urban knowledge, tools, people, community
Discover Portico’s three main pillars, available from 10 October 2023:
- Knowledge Hub: This knowledge repository integrates resources and tools from the European Urban Initiative, EU Urban Agenda, URBACT and other Cohesion Policy actors to support urban practitioners in building their knowledge and skills.
- Urban Panorama: Drawn from existing EU knowledge and initiatives, this is an overview of the main bodies contributing to the design and implementation of sustainable urban development policies and strategies in Europe.
- Portico Community: Brings together practitioners, policymakers, urban experts, mayors… anyone interested in improving sustainable urban development from across the EU. This is where peers can exchange ideas, get information on upcoming events, and participate in discussions on sustainable urban development themes.
As Portico develops in line with users’ needs, new modules will become available. Sign up and join the journey!
