3W Municipality ambassador programme

3W Municipality ambassador programme

An important area of 3W’s activities is education and the exchange of experience between local governments, business and the research community. The goal of the 3W Municipality ambassador programme goes beyond mere provision of expertise to representatives of local communities. We also want the programme to create space for discussion about the shape and directions of regional development, ways of effective management of urban and rural development and creation of ever improving living conditions for residents. 

he pilot edition of the 3W Municipality ambassador programme may be entered by all local governments and municipal companies that are engaged in activities related to the protection of water resources, development of modern technologies, including low-emission transport technologies and technologies embodying the idea of sustainable development. 

We prepared the year-long ambassador programme in cooperation with 3W partners: SBB Energy, CMS law firm, Ścieki Polskie, Arcadis, experts from the Polish Association of Centers for Technology Transfer and experts from Bank Gospodarstwa Krajowego.
