URBACT Summer University 2013 - Labs - Human Capital - Session 2URBACT
This document provides an overview of Lab 2 from the URBACT program. It has three parts:
1. Translating problems identified in Lab 1 into results by developing a "Solutions Tree" showing actions and expected results.
2. Reviewing and enhancing the evidence base to support the identified solutions by exploring different sources of evidence and how to improve knowledge.
3. Introducing the ULSG@Work Session 2 task of preparing a plan to translate problems into results and fill out an "Evidence Enhancement Table" to identify priorities for strengthening the evidence base. The deliverables are a list of expected results and a completed Evidence Enhancement Table.
This document summarizes Session 1 of URBACT Lab 1. The session introduced the Allium City case study and covered defining problems, mapping stakeholders, and an introduction to working with the Local Support Group. Participants broke into small groups called ULSGs to use problem tree and stakeholder analysis tools to define key problems and assess stakeholder importance and influence for the city case. The session aimed to provide conceptual frameworks, tools, and techniques to support action planning work over four labs and ULSG sessions.

- Part 2 discusses resources needed for the action plan, including funding sources like EU programs and new instruments like crowdsourcing.
- Part 3 prepares the U
The document outlines the process for a "Dragons' Den" session where local action groups will present pitches to a panel on proposed projects, and the winning group will receive an award. Groups will be scored on criteria such as the coherence of their problem and solution, feasibility of their approach, and quality of their presentation. The document provides instructions on preparation time, introduces the panel that will decide on the winning group, and concludes with a congratulatory message and reminder of an evaluation checklist.
Europe has experienced a high rate of land consumption, with artificial land cover increasing by 3.4% between 2000 and 2006. While artificial land makes up only 4% of the EU's total area, urban development and infrastructure have affected over a quarter of EU territory. As more people live in urban areas, urban sprawl has become an issue as cities and towns expand in a scattered way across the countryside. Land is a finite resource that is critical for food production and ecosystem health, so sustainable land use and management of competing demands is important for environmental objectives.

How to Manage Reception Report in Odoo 17Celine George
A business may deal with both sales and purchases occasionally. They buy things from vendors and then sell them to their customers. Such dealings can be confusing at times. Because multiple clients may inquire about the same product at the same time, after purchasing those products, customers must be assigned to them. Odoo has a tool called Reception Report that can be used to complete this assignment. By enabling this, a reception report comes automatically after confirming a receipt, from which we can assign products to orders.

14. EVIDENCE
• Evidence is used at different stages of the project process;
• Evidence has been used already in defining the problem, and in thinking about
solutions;
• Evidence is also used during the process and at the end via monitoring and
evaluation;
• Here we concentrate on broadening the horizons of evidence in the initial
stages of the process.

15. SOURCES OF EVIDENCE
You are not alone…You may learn from:
• Those who have addressed the same or similar issues
• The past: What has been tried before? Why it worked/did not work?
• Colleagues in your own city: could it be that similar actions are tried in other
city quarters, how to use their lessons?
• From service users and citizens: getting feedback and ideas and co-creating?
• Other cities: Learning from good practices in other cities, national and abroad?
• Science, research and data: Learning from scientific studies about the topic at
hand? How to find them, how to “translate” them in a language accessible for
policymakers?
• Using expertise and any ‘thinking out of the box’: What type of experts would
we need? How about inviting ‘unusual suspects’, someone who could really
inspire and challenge us
URBACT LAB 1 SESSION 2 15
16. ’UNUSUAL SUSPECTS’
• Experts or anybody coming from outside
the people and organisations we usually
use to inform us
• In order to help us think out of the
box, to have a fresh and critical look on
what we are doing
• To be challenged and inspired
• To find new, creative ways of solving our
problems
• To broaden our horizons, to enhance our
actions and
• Get better results
URBACT LAB 1 SESSION 2 16
17. EXAMPLES OF ’UNUSUALSUSPECTS’
Copenhagen Job Centre:
• Hired Anthropologists, using co-creative methods with
customers, and made a ’walk through’ and analysis of
the whole job centre service process and then together
with staff and customers came up with innovations
City of Swindon, UK:
• Hired voluntary organisation people who lived for
weeks with troubled families, in their daily lives, in
order to bring the message ’from the inside’ for reforms
of services, which were not delivering
