Werkstatt-Stadt is accompanied by different internet collections under the title "best practices". It is in the nature of this medium that similarities and overlapping content in the sum of the project information occurs. We see more advantages than disadvantages in this, since more ways lead to good examples of sustainable development in this information network.
We do, however, aim at limiting the number of redundancies. We are therefore not interested in promoting projects further which already attract a lot of interest. The focus is on urban development approaches from the Federal Republic which up to now have escaped attention.
There are a number of collections of examples on the internet which offer additional or further information to Werkstatt-Stadt. Werkstatt-Stadt sees itself in a constructive division of work with these websites. Therefore, such links are referred to in the following. This is neither a complete nor a representative selection.

The national urban development policy brings together stakeholders and persons interested in urban issues. It provides platforms for lively discussions, highlights current trends in urban society and development and deals with examplary approaches for action and solution.

The research project „Zero Euro Urbanism“ is in search of „good-practice“-projects and methods from the fields city planning, city development and urban management which are either characterized by relatively low expenses of communal resources or have turned out to be self-financing.

This web portal is the central communication medium for the exchange of experiences and transfer of knowledge about the city planning promotion programme “Activated neighbourhood- and local centres”.

This website informs about the promotion projects of the action programme „redevelopment and development methods within urban development“ in the context of promotion of city planning.

Next to information, links and guidance for climate- and energymanagement in councils the central internet portal „energy – efficient councils“ offers a range of ideal examples.
