WHAT KIND OF SUBMISSIONS ARE WE LOOKING FOR?
We are looking for ideas and concepts
that have not yet been implemented.
These ideas must:
• Demonstrate a ‘simple solution’ to the complex challenges of keeping cities livable;
• Be original, and not previously proposed or developed, either in whole or part, by anyone else;
• Be implementable within a maximum
of two years
WHAT ARE THE AWARD CATEGORIES?
There are three Award categories:
• Well-being Outdoors: Initiatives that will
help make citizens feel safe and secure in public spaces, or help create city identity
and foster a sense of belonging;
• Independent Living: Initiatives that will
help the growing number of elderly
people living alone to feel secure and comfortable in a city, and/or enable
them to live longer at home with the appropriate access to healthcare;
• Healthy Lifestyle at Work and Home: Initiatives that will support a healthy body and mind, whether through a person’s surroundings or other essentials such
as exercise, sleep and diet.
WHAT WILL THE AWARD CONSIST OF?
One overall winning idea from any of the
three categories will receive a grant of
€75,000. Two additional ideas from the remaining categories will also each receive grants of €25,000. In addition, the winners
will have the opportunity to promote their ideas and their cities.
2 winners of the remaining categories receive EUR 25,000 each
