Re-Place Eu Project

Re-Place is a Horizon Europe project that explores how mobility can help revitalise non-metropolitan, left-behind areas across Europe. By engaging communities through participatory research, the project investigates how patterns of spatial (im)mobility shape both origin and destination regions, and how they can be harnessed to foster. Launched in March 2023 and running for four years, Re-Place is led by the Institute of Geography and Spatial Planning, University of Lisbon (IGOT-UL), in collaboration with seven partners from six European countries. Together, we aim to rethink development from the ground up.
