New Call : “Actors of Urban Change”


“Actors of Urban Change” is a Europe-wide program by the Robert Bosch Stiftung in cooperation with MitOst e.V. It aims to achieve sustainable and participatory urban development through cultural activities. This is carried out by strengthening the competencies for cross-sector collaboration among actors from the cultural sphere, the administration, and the private sector who form teams of three committed to implementing a project in their city. Using culture as a tool and context, the projects might address a broad range of social, political and environmental challenges related to urban change.

On a local level, the teams receive support for the implementation of their joint projects through grants and individual coaching. On an international level, they benefit from further qualification through workshops, seminars, peer-learning sessions and field trips during meetings and shadowing internships with teams from different cities, allowing for Europe-wide exchange and networking.

Applications from all 47 member countries of the Council of Europe as well as Belarus and Kosovo can be submitted until September 13, 2015. 
A detailed description of the program and contact information, as well as access to the call, FAQs and the online application, are available on www.actors-of-urban-change.eu.
