Project Structure
A coordinated network linking partner cities, universities, and civic organisations under the Europe for Citizens Programme (2007–2013).
How SINERGI Is Organised
SINERGI is structured as a network of twinned cities working together to exchange knowledge, experience, and good practices. Day-to-day work is shared between city offices, universities, and civic organisations across the four partner cities.
Each city brings local partners into the consortium, and scientific coordination is provided by the Faculty of Architecture at the University Ss. Cyril and Methodius. This shared backbone keeps the project's research, seminars, and workshops aligned across Skopje, Turin, Zagreb, and Lisbon.
Partner City Network
Four partner cities form the core of the SINERGI network, each contributing local institutions to the consortium.
