Formas and the Swedish Energy Agency are organizing an information meeting on Friday 5 September at 13.00-14.00. In the fall of 2025, the fourth European call for urban development within the partnership program Driving urban transitions, DUT, will open. There are good opportunities to apply for funding for research and innovation projects linked to urban sustainability work - even for projects that are already underway. The information meeting will take place digitally via Zoom.
Transnational research and innovation projects in urban development can be supported through this year's Driving urban transitions call. Actors active in Sweden can participate in international projects that help cities in their transition to more sustainable communities. More information about the call will be available during the summer.
Information meeting for Swedish actors
During the information meeting, Formas and the Swedish Energy Agency will explain the content of the partnership, the focus of the call and the practicalities of applying. There will also be an opportunity to ask questions.
It will soon be possible to register to receive invitations to upcoming events and networking opportunities within Driving urban transitions and JPI Urban Europe. It will also be possible to save the date for the information meeting and then connect via the upcoming link here on the event page.
More information on the agenda will be published closer to the meeting.
Driving urban transitions
Driving urban transitions is a Horizon Europe partnership aiming to drive urban development towards a sustainable future. The program will intensify European work on urban challenges and enable authorities, researchers, municipalities, businesses and residents to translate global strategies into local initiatives. Formas and the Swedish Energy Agency contribute with funding and Swedish actors can apply for funding in calls carried out within the framework of the partnership.
