Not-for-profit organisations are involved within the field of service delivering, skill training and cultural revitalisation as shown by Berlin where the Workers Welfare Friedrichshein is in charge of job training for young people with disadvantages on the labour market; or by Glasgow where Education and training is organised through the Glasgow Nautical College Cultural and cultural life is enriched by Citizens’ Theatre and the Scottish Opera.

In Copenhagen / Kongens Enghave assistance regarding job creation/ finding has been generated by public sector in close cooperation with residents and local entrepreneurs.

On the other private sector initiative focusing on the improvement of urban ambience trough revitalisation of cultural life, provision of leisure and educational training facilities is demonstrated in Valetta.
