On 19-20 November, EURE partners met in the city of Brest to start investigating solutions to the new urban challenges faced by low populated urban areas in Europe towards resource efficiency and sustainability. Atlantic Cities hosted the meeting which welcomed also a pool of selected experts coming from each territory covered by EURE. The meeting was also the opportunity for the EURE partners to better apprehend the urban issues identified as central in the sustainable development of the Brittany region, through several study visits.
