Meetings and visits: S4T – European exchanges and cooperation

Throughout 2025, we promoted and organized an important dimension of international exchange and dialogue within the Station for Transformation (S4T) project. Through a series of visits and meetings, we engaged with various European organizations to share best practices, activate collaborations, and gather valuable insights for the transformation of our local area.

 

● January 24–25, 2025 – S4T meets We-Z (Rome) – Visit to Rome
● March 12–14, 2025 – S4T – Exchange with Transfer Partners (RO, ES, SLO) – Visit to Rovereto
● March 27–28, 2025 – S4T meets NEBourhoods (Munich) – Visit to Munich
● November 11–12, 2025 – S4T meets European Capital of Culture – Visit to Nova Gorica

 

Throughout this journey, moving between Rovereto and some of Europe’s most dynamic urban and cultural realities, we explored how different approaches and contexts can respond to common challenges. Each step was an opportunity to build relationships, compare methodologies for regeneration and social innovation, and bring home new visions to apply locally.

This path of exchange has led us to imagine a Rovereto and a Vallagarina that…
✨ permanently connect with the most innovative European networks and projects.
? become an open laboratory for the transfer of international best practices.
? value cross-border cooperation as a driver for local development.
? build strong alliances with institutional, social, and cultural partners across Europe.
? foster the cross-pollination of different cultures and skills to regenerate the local area.
? transform the insights gathered abroad into concrete actions for the community.
?? recognize the value of European citizenship and co-design.

 

We warmly thank all the people, international partners, and organizations who welcomed us and made these precious moments of growth possible.

 

The trips and exchanges were organized within the framework of the Station for Transformation project. Station for Transformation is co-funded by the European Urban Initiative.

The sessions were organized with the support of the Autonomous Province of Trento.
