PROJECT
FINISHED
AlpCity focuses on local development and urban regeneration of small alpine towns. Many small alpine and mountain towns/villages have undergone processes of socio-economic decline, have inadequate public/private services, quality of life and built environment, a (mainly aged) population with limited access to culture and decision-making/participation. These are unsustainable islands of disparity in a generally affluent part of Europe, whose existence impinges the creation of a polycentric urban system and a sustainable urban-rural relationship, often in fragile natural environments at the heart of the Alps. AlpCity aims at promoting common understanding, cultural/political change, through a large transnational partnership and different groups of activities, namely: networking and exchange to create common knowledge and strategies, collection of best local practices, innovative project-cases by single local authorities, dissemination and communication activities, guidelines/future scenarios.
