Cities4Cities

Priorities of work: — Developing municipal partnerships between Ukrainian-EU municipalities, fostering collaboration and exchange of best practices. — Advocacy of the active role of LGs in the EU integration processes. — Enhancing the capacities of local communities for recovery and EU integration. How we work: We promote the networking platform https://cities4cities.eu/ with over 400 profiles of Ukrainian municipalities, looking for partnerships. We provide ongoing backup support to Ukrainian and European municipalities on their way to partnerships by expertise, networking and sharing best practices and opportunities. We involve local governance and associations into dialogue with Ukrainian government and EU institutions on important aspects of recovery and EU integration. Furthermore, we make the practical knowledge about municipal cooperation, international cooperation, EU integration, and project management easily accessible to municipalities through our Cities4Cities Academy and Residences of Ideas — creative experience exchange seminars for local governance leaders.
