TBestC

Big interest for TBestC resulted in 10 devoted cities taking part in the project

It has been hectic times for the UBC EnvCom staff to select ten cities that will be able to take part in the TBestC project. Out of the many interesting applications the following ten city couples/groups were selected. Riga, Sopot and ECAT-Kaliningrad will together study the Eco-lighthouse project in Kristiansand. Jelgava and Cesis will get the opportunity to learn more about water management and bio-diversity in the City of Malmo. Sillamae will try to adopt the excellent environmental education scheme for businesses established by ECAT-Kaliningrad and City of Liepaja will try to reach the EU requirements for air-quality through their co-operation with City of Turku. At the first Workshop that will take place in Turku 9-11 October the cities will start up the co-operation and plan for the up-coming study visit that is one of the core events in the project. The information collected during the study visit together with the analysis of the city's own situation will form the basis for the feasibility analysis and report.
