The event brings together non-governmental organizations from France, Berlin, Portugal, Latvia and Lithuania, which work on civic education projects, revitalization of neighbourhoods and public spaces. Each of participating organizations develops a local project, addressed to a disadvantaged neighbourhood area. Each meeting takes place in the city, where a local project is being developed.
