Eurban Deco

EUrban DECO -Exploring EU urban landscapes for a deconstruction of colonial narratives”, running from March 2024 to February 2026, explore the colonial legacy inside today’s EU cities. By exploring symbols, romanticized narratives, and toponymy, the project aims to investigate the long-lasting influence of colonial ideologies in EU urban environments, starting a collective debate about their impact and promoting new narratives and shared cultural remembrance inside EU cities’ toponymy. The colonial legacy of Europe’s recent past will be put at the core of this transnational investigation aimed at raising awareness on the relationship between urban landscapes, historic memory and multicultural integration and attracting wider attention on the topic from public authorities and stakeholders.

All project activities will be carried out keeping a close focus on gender perspective, considering the historical interconnections between gender issues and colonialism. A gender-sensitive approach will therefore be ensured in all events, thanks to the supervision and thematic and methodological coordination of Women of Mediterranean east and south European Network (IT), Vital Aid Foundation (NL) and Solution: Solidarité et Inclusion Association (FR).

The project is funded by the CERV Citizens, Equality, Right and Values Programme, Citizens’ engagement and participation strand - European Remembrance and involves partners from Italy, Spain, France, Portugal, The Netherlands, Albania and Germany.

Budget: € 166,495.00

Duration: 24 months (29 February 2024 - 28 February 2026)
