The Creative Cities project explores new ways to improve the quality of life in urban communities by involving young professionals from diverse backgrounds.

The project will enable them to acquire knowledge, networks, skills and tools to strengthen their voice in making decisions on the environment they live in. Discussions will cover a range of issues, including public spaces, arts and social activities, the contribution of creative industries to city development, and the role of cultural policy.

The project works in partnership with a range of cities and organizations active in developing innovative approaches to city policy. Involvement in the project provides an opportunity for cities to establish a competitive advantage for themselves and attract creative talent, which contributes to their future economic growth.

The project is organized with partners within private and public organisations and with European cities in the UK, Poland, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Slovakia, Slovenia, Ukraine, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Finland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and Russia. It will continue until the end of 2011.
