The Urban Doers Grant is an initiative of the DUT Partnership that aims at supporting urban initiatives to connect to research and innovation and help them share their knowledge and experiences across Europe to make their innovative ideas work in urban areas.
The grant includes monetary support as well as access to trainings, coaching, networking events, webinars and other support activities to help the initiatives develop their ideas and build up know how to engage more strongly in related research and innovation activities. The goal is to help urban doers to prepare next steps towards wider outreach, and to encourage them to participate in future joint research and innovation calls by the DUT Partnership. The grant runs for 12 months and is designed to help initiatives shape their ideas, build partnerships and networks, and grow their knowhow and impact.

Attend an obligatory on-site kick-off meeting and closure meeting with all other Urban Doers.
