Co-Roma - Capacity Building

Co-Roma: we start from the neighborhood cooperation!

Promoted by Luiss LabGov.City within the project Horizon2020 "OpenHeritage" and in collaboration with other Italian National institutions (ENEA and Confcooperative), it aims to stimulate the birth of enterprises for the sustainable development of Rome's ACT district and other neighbourhoods. The objective of the path, structured in a cycle of webinar meetings, is to discover "neighborhood cooperators" who can contribute to the implementation of projects already active or in progress in some districts of the city for the care of the archaeological heritage of the suburbs (as well as for the enhancement of the Tiber, for urban agriculture and sustainable fashion), or generate new forms of urban cooperatives (for example in the field of sustainable mobility, energy flexibility, broadband, etc.).

During the pandemic emergency we have rediscovered the importance of neighbourhood, proximity, the places where we live and that surround us. For this reason we want to identify and support new cooperators willing to work in Rome's neighbourhoods, in order to change the development model of the city and make it more socially, economically, environmentally and culturally sustainable.
