Become a Challenge City - CIVITAS Replication and Deployment Second Cycle

The programme brings together cities from across Europe to share knowledge, exchange best practices and develop actionable Deployment Plans.

In the first cycle (2023-2025), Challenge Cities worked closely with Champion Cities to co-develop strategies in sustainable urban logistics, placemaking and participatory processes, and universal design and accessibility. Through study visits, twinning sessions, and co-creation workshops, cities engaged in hands-on learning and direct exchanges with mobility experts and peers.

Join the Second Cycle: Apply as a Challenge City

Now, six new Challenge Cities will be selected for the second cycle (2025-2027) of the programme, looking for cities facing challenges related to:

  • Behavioural Change and Mobility Management
  • Road Safety and Security
  • Multimodal Hubs

As a Challenge City, you will:

  • Define a key urban mobility challenge to address
  • Engage in twinning and co-creation activities with experienced cities
  • Host and attend study visits to exchange best practices
  • Develop a Deployment Plan to implement real change
