About
Karadeniz Technical University (Türkiye) is inviting European municipalities and local public authorities to explore participation in RE-LIVE 15, a project proposal under the DUT Partnership Call 2026.
The project focuses on transforming underused urban spaces and pedestrian infrastructure into climate-resilient, inclusive and multifunctional neighbourhood environments.
Potential municipal contributions:
-
Identification of suitable urban neighbourhoods and candidate intervention sites.
-
Provision of GIS, land-use, environmental and infrastructure data.
-
Participation in urban living labs and collaborative decision-making.
-
Engagement of residents, vulnerable groups and relevant municipal departments.
-
Coordination of permits and implementation of a selected physical micro-pilot.
-
Monitoring, maintenance planning and integration of project results into municipal practice.
The project envisages at least two pilot neighbourhoods in two countries, with one selected physical micro-intervention in each country.
We welcome municipalities interested in innovative blue-green infrastructure, walkability, urban climate adaptation, public-space reuse and participatory governance.
Participation and funding arrangements will be determined according to the relevant national eligibility rules.
