Sustainable & Resilient Urban-Rural Partnerships – URP2020

25.11.2020 - 27.11.2020

Current situation: We are closely following the COVID-19 development, WHO and German official policies and recommendations. We hope that we all stay healthy and that the URP2020 will take place in Leipzig in November. We will consider alternative forms (online) or timing of the event in due course.

Under auspices of the Minister of the German Ministry for Education and Research (BMBF) Anja Karliczek, the conference "Sustainable & Resilient Urban-Rural Partnerships – URP2020" will take place in Leipzig, Germany, 25-27 November 2020.

Regions are of critical importance to achieve the implementation of the UN 2030 Agenda including the Sustainable Development Goals and the HABITAT III objectives. By focusing on sustainable and resilient urban-rural partnerships, the international URP2020 conference aims at developing new urban-rural imaginaries, integrating strategies and projects that explore present and future potentials in terms of sustainability and resilience.

The URP2020 will bring together and connect scientific insights and enlightening experiences of on-going projects in practice. Join a stimulating conference that fosters learning on various levels, i.e, from the local level via entire regions to the broader European understanding of integrated urban-rural development. We offer a forum for exchange and support the co-design of ideas to tackle the challenges for sustainable and resilient regional development.
