BACKGROUND OF THE SOCIAL INNOVATIONS Emergence of local proactive welfare policies: As far as housing and childcare policies are concerned, multi-level governance is the predominant situation with more or less shared responsibilities between national and local governments. It introduces complex institutional relations and potential tensions on issues such as priorities on the agenda and funding. Indeed, childcare and housing issues are partly determined by national policies. Nevertheless, cities and metropolises have taken more responsibilities throughout the years for different reasons: continuation of the decentralisation process; context of the economic crisis implying state withdrawal from welfare policies; development of technical resources and expertise at the level of cities and metropolises, enabling them to develop their own policies.

    City Nantes Metropolis Country France Population 630,000 inhabitants Title of policy or practice Appel à projet "installations agricoles" (Call for "Agricultural Installations" Project) Subtitle (optional) How to attract promoters of sustainable agricultural projects in a dense urban context? URL video Category Food Production SDGs SDGs: 8, 11, 12, 15, 17. Brief description Background: Nantes urban area includes 24 municipalities with 630,000 inhabitants (6th in France). It is remarkably dynamic, while preserving two thirds of its surface area for agricultural and natural activities (30,000 hectares i.e. 300 km²). Although there is strong land pressure, diversified agriculture has resisted quite well since the city launched an ambitious programme to protect and re-cultivate fallow land. During the period 2009- 2017, nearly 180 hectares were cleared, and 30 farms were set up with the financial support of Nantes Metropolis (NM). Today, new areas are ready to embrace new agricultural projects that are consistent with the community's objectives in terms of business activity, environmental and biodiversity preservation, and the social dynamics of our peri-urban and urban areas. A working group has been set up to facilitate the installation of new farms. It aims to characterize the potential of each area, identify project leaders likely to be interested and look for the best possible match between the areas and the candidates for installation by an innovative and participatory method. Objectives of the approach: • Find the right match between

IFSTTAR researches aims at helping networks managers by investigating hydraulics and solid transport occurring in urban sewer networks. The current paper presents an experimental study of the influence of the hydraulic parameters on the deposit bathymetry. Various ultrasonic devices are used in the study to measure the transversal variation of the deposit and the velocity profiles sewer. The results show the relation between the deposit height and the bottom shear stress and will be presented and discussed in paper.
