Comparative Analysis of Territorial Governance and Spatial Planning Systems in Europe
Description of call
"Comparative Analysis of Territorial Governance and Spatial Planning Systems in Europe"

The main outcome of this research shall be to provide an authoritative and comparable reference on spatial planning systems, policies and territorial governance throughout Europe in order to improve knowledge sharing and to illustrate some of the key problems and opportunities which arise in the territorial implementation of EU cohesion policies.

 

The main objective of this research is therefore to answer the following key policy questions:

  • What changes in territorial governance and spatial planning systems and policies can be observed across Europe over the past 15 years? Can these changes be attributed to the influence of macro-level EU directives and policies?
  • What are best-practices for cross-fertilisation of spatial and territorial development policies with EU Cohesion Policy?
  • How can national/regional spatial and territorial development policy perspectives be better reflected in Cohesion Policy and other policies at the EU scale?
