The European Partnership for Integrated Sustainability Management aims to mainstream an integrated approach to building sustainable cities and regions. It will have national training hubs that support cities and regions in implementing EU policies and initiatives in a systematic way using an Integrated Management System. The partnership will develop a capacity development portal with tools and materials to help trainers and cities implement sustainability practices. It is in the process of being established through working groups and meetings to finalize the partnership statutes and governance structure.
