What is a Peer Review?
As a reminder, a Peer Review is a capacity building activity offered by EUI to support European cities in improving the design and implementation of their Sustainable Urban Development (SUD) strategies, through a process of benchmarking and peer learning. Each Peer Review involves one ‘city under review’, working with individuals from several other European cities acting as ‘peer reviewers’ to address challenges in developing, implementing or monitoring an effective SUD strategy.
