"Amistad"
Marseilles organised cooperation with Viña del Mar (Chile), Seville (Spain), Querétaro (Mexico) and Trelew (Argentina) by drawing upon its experience through the Allô Mairie service, to develop a high-quality municipal agency with a budget of EUR 200 000.
"Transformation Strategy for Urban Port Sites"
Initiatives to reclaim the port areas near urban centres were at the centre of discussions between the cities of Marseilles, Balboa (Spain) and Montevideo (Uruguay), Rosario (Argentina) and Valparaiso (Chile). The programme amounted to EUR 350 000.
Marseille Mission Europe and its partners have found solutions to some common issues: review processes, transnational charters, guides on best practices and seminars were all used to pave the way toward modernising municipal practices.
