ESPON 3.2: Spatial scenarios in relation to the ESDP and EU Cohesion Policy

Time period: 2004-2007

Financing: ESPON 2006 Programme

EUROREG research team: Grzegorz Gorzelak, Bohdan Jałowiecki, Marek Kozak, Katarzyna Krok, Agnieszka Olechnicka

In cooperation with: Alexandru Ioan Cuza University of Iasi (Iasi, Romania), Centre for Economic and Regional Studies, Hungarian Academy of Sciences (Budapest, Hungary), CUDEM, School of the Built Environment, Faculty of Arts and Society (Leeds, United Kingdom), European Agency Territories and Synergies (EA-TS) (Strasbourg, France), Federal Institute for Research on Building, Urban Affairs and Spatial Development (BBSR) (Bonn, Germany), Halle Institute for Economic Research (IWH) (Halle, Germany), IGEAT, Free University of Brussels (Brussels, Belgium), Mcrit (Barcelona, Spain), National Technical University of Athens School of Architecture, Department of Urban and Regional Planning (Athens, Greece), Nordic Centre for Spatial Development (Nordregio) (Stockholm, Sweden), Politecnico di Milano, Department of Management, Economics and Industrial Engineering (Milan, Italy), The Netherlands Institute for Spatial Research (Hague, Netherlands), UMS RIATE (Paris, France)

The main objective of the project is to develop spatial scenarios which should on the one hand be prospective, capable of prognostics with reference to a laissez-faire scenario on themes of the ESPON and policy orientations of the ESDP.

On the other hand the scenarios should as well be proactive testing alternative objectives and provide insight for recommendations on policy adjustments/changes in EU policies that would favour a balanced and polycentric territory and territorial cohesion within an enlarged European Union. The time horizon for the spatial scenarios is set to 2015 (mid term) and 2030 (long term).
