ANCI Lazio hosted the coordination meeting of the European project Streets for Citizens, funded by the Programme INTERREG Euro-MED, which took place in Rome from 27 to 29 January 2026.
The meeting represented a fundamental step in the exchange of views among the project partners, fostering the sharing of experiences, joint work and the co-design of strategic documents aimed at strengthening and developing the project activities based on the approach of the Tactical Urbanism. These are low-cost and high-impact interventions designed to improve the quality of public space and urban livability in a rapid timeframe.
In the course of the work, ANCI Lazio presented the co-design initiated for the realisation of a school road at via Cina 4, in Rome, at the’Istituto Comprensivo Matteo Ricci, in collaboration with the Municipality IX of Roma Capitale.
During the last day of activities, the partners also visited a significant example of tactical urbanism in the neighborhood. Tufello, in via Monte Gennaro, In this case, a school road was built. The experience showed how targeted and sustainable interventions can contribute concretely to improving safety, accessibility and the quality of public space, promoting more inclusive and people-oriented cities.
All the partners involved in the pilot actions are now fully operational in the implementation of their respective projects, contributing to the transformation of urban spaces and placing citizens at the center of the development processes of cities.
