El Instituto de Gobierno y Políticas Públicas (IGOP), creado en el 2001, es un instituto de investigación interdisciplinario que pertenece a la Universidad Autónoma de Barcelona (UAB). El Instituto está formado por profesores e investigadores procedentes de diferentes áreas de las ciencias sociales, principalmente de la sociología y la ciencia política, pero también de la geografía, la economía, la antropología y las ciencias medioambientales, entre otras. El principal objetivo del IGOP es crear un espacio de debate, de generación e intercambio de conocimiento, comprometido con el rigor y la excelencia científica. Las actividades de investigación se focalizan en los procesos gubernamentales, de diseño de políticas públicas y de participación ciudadana. Más específicamente, el Instituto tiene intereses respecto a los diferentes niveles de gobierno (europeo, estatal, regional y local), las diferentes políticas sectoriales (social, medioambiental, educación y políticas de juventud) y la implicación de los actores sociales y políticos en los procesos.

Within the framework of AHEAD project, Cologne City Council carries out case studies, which are supervised by: Stadt Köln - Mayor’s Office - Office of International Affairs                                                                        

The department of International Affairs of the city of Cologne is part of the mayor’s office. International Affairs is in charge of the coordination of the 23 twin city ships of Cologne, the accomplishment of local work in the context of Europe and as well counselling in international fields. The second task covers the development and the accomplishment of European projects and the representation of municipal interests by working with international city networks of European and International Institutions.

The European projects should guarantee the implementation of European values which are laid down in the treaties. Therefore we want to support the interdiction of discrimination by implementing AHEAD.

Department for Social Affairs, Integration and Environment

The department for social affairs, integration and environment consists of eight different offices, named: office for social affairs and elderly people, health office, offices for housing and public utility agency, environmental and consumer protection office, intercultural unit, commissioner for the disabled, office for work safety and a branch office of the city consortium for lesbians, gays and transgender. In the future we want to create a new unit for lesbians, gays and transgender (LGT) based on the council order in December 17^th in 2009. This unit should generate a new concept to the development of the LGT policy in Cologne. In addition it should coordinate the employment of lesbians, gays and transgender, accomplish public relations and it should also be a contact person to NGO’s. Furthermore we want to counsel LGT in the city administration and therewith we like to create a representation of interests in the bodies of the city.   

The department also supports the environmental protection by implementing different projects in this field (e.g. entering low emission zones and ÖKOPROFIT).

The Lgtb Office was set up in 2001 on recommendation of the Coordinamento Torino Pride Glbt (Coordinator of LGTB Associations in Turin), and it belongs to the “Equal Opportunities and Gender Policies Section” of the City Council. The office was created to answer the needs of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transsexual and transgender individuals, in order to improve the quality of life and create a social climate of respect and free of prejudice. The office carries out information and public awareness campaigns aimed at the entire population, and promotes in particular cultural initiatives, and the implementation of training activities aimed at civil servants and teachers. It also prepares educational activities for young people to challenge homophobia, with special attention to the world of schools. It furthermore imparts social inclusion and employment actions for transsexual and transgender people. The Lgtb Office reaches its goals by networking with: other local administration sectors, the Province of Turin, the Piedmont Region authority and Coordinamento Torino Pride Glbt. In order to disseminate and share good practices on a national level, it is a member of Italian R.E.A.D.Y network (National Network of Public Administration for sexual orientation and gender identity).
