How can we keep IcARUS momentum going?

As the IcARUS partner cities begin to test their solutions in their local environment, we are already asking ourselves, how the IcARUS methodology can be implemented further in other urban contexts? So that the work carried out over several years can benefit as many cities as possible.

As we know, the end of the IcARUS project will only be the beginning of the deployment of the methodology. We sincerely hope (and work for!) that what we have learned and the tools we have developed will be useful to many other towns and cities as they develop their public policies on urban safety.

So how can we support the transmission of the methodology over time? How can we ensure that other cities can benefit from what we have learned?

That’s the question on our minds at the moment! That’s why, in parallel with the evaluation of the IcARUS methodology, we are working on a training programme for those involved in supporting local authorities, to give them all the elements of the method and a support structure on how to effectively adopt it in public policy.

Our aim is to build a programme that will enable us to train IcARUS ambassadors, experts capable of helping cities to adapt and implement the methodology throughout Europe!
