The city of Haarlem is a municipality in the Netherlands. With 160.000 habitants it’s in the category of middle sized cities. The municipality of Haarlem has initiated an extensive sustainability program that focuses on climate adaptation, energy transition and circular economy. As part of the implementation strategy for this program, several living labs have been created to test new concepts in a practical urban setting. Close cooperation between the municipal government, local business and business organizations, educational institutions and NGO’s has created an easily accessible network of expertise. Actual living labs, active over a period of two years now, include projects focusing on zero emission city logistics and combatting food waste. The Haarlem municipality plays an active part in the living labs in a coordinating capacity. Examples of living labs in the city of Haarlem: Haarlem is the action leader of the Urban Agenda Partnership on Public procurement.

Located in the centre of Portugal, the region of Terras de Sicó covers six municipalities around the Serra de Sicó massif, which divides the river basins of Nabão and Soure. It aggregates the relevant wine subregion of Beiras and must follow the production technologies and traditional oenological practices, as well as those legally authorised. The wine production in this region goes up to the Roman empire, with soils of clay-calcareous origin, with different nuances with small outcrops of schist, populating the green of the sunny slopes with a climate of cold, wet winters and hot, dry summers.

The City of Venice signed the Milan Urban Food Policy Pact in 2015. Since then, a number of sectoral initiatives and programs have been implemented, especially in terms of supporting youth and fragile social groups. However, there is a lack of coordination among these initiatives and there are neither programs nor strategies for the future of the local food system. Today, the high demand for products to be served in restaurants and hotels requires many foods to be imported from the outside. Local producers are struggling to stay in the market.
