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.
