Driving Urban Transitions (DUT)
About DUT:
In this Collaborative Research Action (CRA), the Belmont Forum joined the European partnership Driving Urban Transitions for the year 2024 in a common call that considers the future as dependent on tackling major complex challenges now, many of which must be tackled in cities and by urban communities. Part of the European Horizon Europe Framework Programme and a continuation of the Urban Europe JPI, the Driving Urban Transitions European Partnership brings together a strong community of almost 30 countries and more than 60 partners to support the European innovation ecosystem in the urban field for the third year running. By providing a joint CRA, the Belmont Forum builds on its previous actions, the SUGI Food-Water-Energy Nexus CRA and ERANET which was implemented jointly with JPI Urban Europe. This call focused on:
-
Circular Urban Economies
-
15-minute Cities
-
Positive Energy Districts
This call was launched in 2024. The deadline to receive proposals ended in early 2025 and the project proposals are under review. The Belmont Forum is supporting this initiative with participation from FAPESP (Brazil), JST (Japan), and NSTC (Taipei).
