Projects

The Forum for Cities in Transition (FCT) is a dynamic and lively network, offering practical support for those living in cities in conflict and real solutions to previously intractable problems. The primary premise of the Forum for Cities in Transition is that cities that are in conflict or have emerged from conflict are in the best position to help other cities in similar situations.
