The DUT 15-minute City Knowledge Hub just issued their first publication entitled "Peri-urbanity and the 15 minute City" structured as a list of recommendations for local policymakers. The main messages are listed below, based on outcomes of projects EMC2 , InPUT, PROWD , SuCoLo, SSWC.

A significant portion of Europeans lives in a peri-urban area, yet these territories remain a blind spot in most urban strategies and stay locked
into car-dependent daily routines.
• The 15-minute City concept can be accommodated to fit peri-urban realities: they already hold many of its ingredients (population, a mix of
functions, main streets, community networks, available space) but lack a planning lens that treats them on their own terms.
• Not all peri-urban areas are the same. Business hubs, industrial corridors, residential patchworks and satellite towns each demand place-based
strategies, which makes early diagnosis a precondition for effective action.
• Five complementary pathways can help cities to act without redesigning the outskirts from scratch: know your territory, rethink main streets as the backbone of proximity, bring services and work to people, integrate sustainable logistics and flexible mobility, and build on social innovation
