The mission of the CEURES project led by the Urban Development Association is to contribute to the resilience of Central European cities by finding best practices and sharing knowledge between urban planners, municipalities and young professionals. The consortium is composed of the Urban Development Association (HU), University of Hradec Kralove (CZ), Institute of Geography and Spatial Organization Polish Academy of Sciences (PL), the Forum Regional Development Center (SK) and the PONTIBUS EGTC (SK-HU).

The CEURES project gathers the knowledge and best practices of settlement resilience born in recent years but scattered in the V4 countries. In the framework of the project, in order to achieve the greatest impact, the following will be implemented:

  • Finding best practices in each V4 country
  • Professional workshops
  • Freely accessible selection of best practices
  • Freely accessible, multilingual, modular e-learning course material providing practical knowledge
  • Pilot training
  • Central European Urban Resilience Handbook, which is freely accessible
