CIVITAS Replication and Deployment programme
The CIVITAS initiative supports cities in gaining better access to innovative solutions and in addressing their transport challenges through take-up and transfer activities such as twinning sessions, co-creation workshops and site visits.
Between 2023 and 2027, CIVITAS will select 12 Challenge cities and 24 Champion cities to participate in the programme, which will entail various take-up and transfer activities such as twinning sessions, co-creation workshops and site visits. As a result of the CIVITAS Replication and Deployment programme, the 12 Challenge cities will develop a Deployment Plan each which is meant to address the challenge they originally identified.
