Hello Mr. Oster,

 

Just wanted to let you know that the latest edition of Shared Spaces is now
online at www.sharedspaces.nl. Shared Spaces is the international online
quarterly from the Dutch Ministry of Housing, Spatial Planning and the
Environment. This edition focuses on 'Territorial Cohesion' - how spatial
and regional considerations can help strengthen overall European policy. As
a member of the ECO Industries Organisation we hoped you might find it
interesting.

I'm also forwarding on the Shared Spaces announcement. We would very much
appreciate if you can send this to any colleagues, people, organisations,
friends, family, neighbours who might be interested...

 

Kind regards,

 Becky Russell

 

 

 

 




Press Release 
 October 2004

 


Dutch Ministry Debates the Importance of European Territorial Cohesion     

 

*	Secretary General Marjanne Sint explains why Territorial Cohesion is
essential to the future coherency of EU policy.
*	European Commission’s Patrick Salez discusses the need for a spatial
dimension in decision making with Jacques Robert, Director of Agence
Européenne Territoires et Synergies.
*	Senior Policy Advisor Peter Schmeitz talks about the implications of
the European Spatial Planning Observation Network (ESPON) for future
cohesion policy.

 

Spatial planning considerations have not played a great role in European
decision-making to date. While the European Union (EU) currently has no
official mandate for urban and regional development, and planning ministers
have virtually no voice in the policy debate, there is a growing recognition
that structural and sectoral policy can have significant impact on national
development strategies.

 

This edition of Shared Spaces explores the emerging concept of Territorial
Cohesion – and how capitalising on European territorial characteristics and
differences can strengthen the EU.

 

Shared Spaces – www.sharedspaces.nl - is the English language online
quarterly of VROM, the Dutch Ministry of Housing, Spatial Planning and the
Environment. Shared Spaces is a forum for exchanging views and ideas on best
practices in the policy fields of VROM.

 

Shared Spaces is available from today at  <http://www.sharedspaces.nl/>
