The C4B deep-dive session is a closed, immersive mutual-learning online workshop amongst the C4B cities and working group experts. In each session, cities and experts actively share their ongoing projects and initiatives and first-hand knowledge around the specific theme.

Each session builds on the previous sessions, offering in-depth knowledge and continuous capacity-building opportunities to the cities as opposed to a one-off learning event.
