16th Federal Congress of National Urban Development Policy

The 16th Federal Congress on National Urban Development Policy will take place from Sept. 12th to 13th, 2023 in Jena

The Federal Ministry for Housing, Urban Development and Building, together with the Conference of German Building Ministers, the Association of German Cities and the German Association of Towns and Municipalities, hereby invites you to the 16th Federal Congress on National Urban Development Policy.

"Urban-Rural Future Lab - new pathways to better cooperation"
September 12 and 13, 2023 at the Volkshaus Jena

The number of participants allowed for the Volkshaus Jena has been reached, so unfortunately we cannot allow any more registrations and had to close the registration. As an alternative, we offer a livestream of the Federal Congress (main programme) on the following website on September 12th and 13th: Congress-Website.

The Congress will discuss current approaches and strategies for urban development policy and develop ideas for the sustainable and integrated development of urban and rural areas at national, European and international level.
The Congress thematically ties in with the IBA Thuringia 2023 and picks up on the diverse connections between urban and rural, as well as the major transformation challenges that lie ahead – climate change, housing, social participation, and the energy and mobility transition.
This year, we combine some breakout areas with excursions, allowing us to introduce you to special places in the city of Jena and the state of Thuringia. This is an opportunity for you to meet with stakeholders, learn about best-practice projects and share experiences and knowledge with other participants.

The two-day programme for the Congress will also include selected fringe events from a range of partners as well as a small project fair.
