Learning areas

So much could be covered, and therefore it is important to both:

• Prioritise learning areas together with participating cities based on their most powerful needs in addressing their challenge, while also
• Encourage cities to engage in a variety of topics more broadly.

The learning areas should be relevant to all cities, irrespective of their digital maturity. The learning areas can therefore be decided based on an assessment of needs in the cohort. However they should be regularly reviewed over time, as things can quickly change for the cities, and new needs will emerge, and remaining adaptable is important. The curriculum set at the start of the network might not remain relevant throughout the lifetime of the network.
