CIVINET .BE
Innovations and best practices from CIVITAS projects are accessible to all local authorities in Europe. However, many municipalities are having difficulty benefiting maximum from the CIVITAS program. They often struggle to identify interesting CIVITAS calls for projects, find like-minded project partners, or implement innovations and best practices from current CIVITAS projects.
How can your municipality overcome these challenges and make the most of CIVITAS? Thanks to CIVINET .BE, of course! This network facilitating exchanges between Belgian cities and municipalities puts them in contact with other local authorities in Europe and with numerous organizations active in the field of sustainable and intelligent mobility.
