The workshops brought together stakeholders from different institutional, technical and community backgrounds to support the early development of the project’s collaborative framework. Through focus groups, participatory discussions and co-creation dynamics, participants contributed to the identification of key urban challenges, research priorities and methodological directions.
As a central component of the project’s start-up phase, these sessions helped establish a shared basis for collaboration, aligning stakeholder perspectives with the project’s research objectives and preparing the ground for subsequent activities developed across different territorial contexts.
