Projects approved through this Call will focus on fostering exchange and learning among cities and other urban players, capitalising knowledge, and disseminating good practices in the field of integrated and sustainable urban development. By setting up Local Support Groups, producing Local Action Plans, and  through  transnational networking, these projects will both  impact local policies and link into the Operational Programmes.
 
This Call is aimed at supporting European cities to deal with two current major challenges: the economic crisis and its consequences, and climate change and its effects. All project proposals shall refer to one or both of these challenges. In addition, project proposals must address one of the 16 Priority topics defined for this Call.

The Call is open from June 16, 2009 until September 25, 2009.
