Future DiverCities

Future DiverCities is a four-year project (2023–2026) funded by the Creative Europe and implemented by European organisations seeking to re-imagine culture-led regeneration of urban empty spaces.

Savonia’s role in the project is on developing prospective impact assessment process (PIAP) to identify a transdisciplinary methodology to address the need for systemic eco-social impacts for innovation projects. PIAP was implemented and tested in 8 city pilots: Berlin, Zagreb, Liepaja, Kuopio, Marseille, Florence, Timişoara and Athens.
