The MCE Conference this year is hosted by the beautiful Slovenian city of Ljubljana!

A workshop covering several aspects of the FUPOL advanced solution took place in Yantai, China 14 Jan – 18 Jan 2013.

UN-Habitat and Cellent AG, the Austrian coordinator of the European Union's Future Policy Modeling (FUPOL) consortium, teamed up with the Kenyan authorites at a two-day seminar this month to take advantage of the country's technology boom so that people in every walks of life can use their mobile telephones and other devices to join in programmes aimed at helping combat poverty, especially in urban slums.

“Morgenstadt – wie wir morgen leben” is the title of a book that has been just published in Germany. Among the many ideas for all who are thinking today about how urban life might look like in the future the FUPOL project is mentioned as an important example of policy making solutions and e-participation.

From October 17 to 19 in Lisbon the eChallenges 2012 Conference took place, which provides an international forum to share success stories and lessons learnt from applied Information and Communications Technology (ICT) related research at European level (FP7) as well as regional, national and commercial initiatives. Some other interesting projects have been presented that show complementarities with FUPOL.
