The German-Austrian URBAN network supports German and Austrian cities in implementing integrated urban development activities funded by the European Structural Funds. DV is the coordinator of the network. It has currently 13 city members: Berlin, Düsseldorf, Duisburg, Graz, Leipzig, Mannheim, Meißen, Regensburg, Saarbrücken, Solingen, Vienna, Plauen and Jena. New members are welcome! Further partners are the European Commission and relevant federal and “Länder” ministries, as well as the Austrian Federal Chancellery Austria. Each year, there are around three network meetings, each in a different city.
