SWITCH - Demonstration cities

The SWITCH project includes a number of demonstration activities, to be carried out in 10 identified SWITCH Demonstration Cities. These cities are: Accra, Alexandria, Beijing, Belo Horizonte, Birmingham, Chongqing, Hamburg, Lodz, Tel Aviv and Zaragossa. In addition, the Emscher Region of Germany is participating, and a Learning Alliance has been established in Lima, Peru.

The purpose of including these demonstration cities is to translate the results of the SWITCH research activities into tangible, socially-relevant demonstration activities. During the project, feedback from the Learning Alliance is used to determine the scope of the demonstration activities.
