KAEBUP (Knowledge Alliance for Evidence Based Urban Practices)

ALA Planning Partnership among other universities and enterprises in Cyprus, Italy and Portugal participates in the project KAEBUP, an Erasmus+ Knowledge Alliances project co-financed by the EACEA (01.01.2021-31.12.2023). KAEBUP’s main objective is to create an international educational and training method offering participants the opportunity to engage with professional environments, learning how research can be the basis for innovative professional practices and what businesses in the field of planning, architecture and urban design require from academia. 

KAEBUP’s partners comprise HEIs, NGOs and enterprises from different European cities, who have expertise of evidence-based design and wish to strengthen the links between businesses and HEIs to mutually benefit from the tools that research can provide to enterprises and from the experience of evidence-based practice. The cooperation between KAEBUP’s partners will be the key for addressing current needs and developing future educational systems providing students with the skills to enter the professional world and inspiring HEI staff to innovate through research.
