Project description
Aim of the project – to share best practices, experiences between cities-partners to revive small cities of EU and involve community for change.
During the project, partners will be having landscape training and after it will be putting knowledge in practice by changing even the smallest part of their city’s landscape using power of volunteering. Best practices of those who implemented similar activities in their cities will be shared. Discussions about involvement of citizen in decision making process and revival of their own city will be organized. After trainings and discussions craft fair will be taking place.
