D5.1.3_Training_Courses
The deliverable D5.1.3 describes the training activities carried out during implementation of the Sustainable MED Cities (SMC) project.
The new sustainable approach to spatial planning and management of Mediterranean cities, offered by the SMC project through the innovative tools and methodologies set up and tested during the project implementation needs public authorities, both technicians and decision-makers, properly trained in order to maximize the effectiveness in using them.
Two macro-types of training activities, in relation to the relative objectives, have been implemented during the project:
- courses addressed at the teams of the three pilot cities in order to support them in adopting the SMC tools and methodology;
- workshops aimed at wider external audiences to raise awareness and knowledge of the concerned stakeholders and spread the use of SMC tools in the MED area.
