Space – Raising Awareness of Values of Space through the Process of Education (R.A.V.E. Space)

Start date: Feb 28, 2005, End date: Dec 30, 2007,

The topics of spatial planning and sustainable spatial development are only seldom considered in the curricula of primary and secondary schools. One consequence is a lack of knowledge of the general public about spatial planning and the value of space. Citizens only rarely assume an active role in discussions concerning spatial issues. However, spatial planning should be based on both expert decis ...

moting Spatial Development by Creating COMon MINdscapes (COMMIN)

Start date: Aug 31, 2004, End date: Aug 30, 2007,

Transnational and cross-border co-operation have a growing need (e.g. EU-enlargement) for a precise understanding of the partner’s concepts and the planning systems they are embedded in. The improvement of solving similar problems in different BSR countries and on transnational activities can best be achieved by exchange of experiences and ideas, mutual training and further education as well as pr ...

Integrated Land Use Planning and River Basin Management (ILUP)

Start date: Dec 31, 2001, End date: Dec 30, 2006,

The risk potential in river basins has increased strongly due to the enormous use pressure. In view of the demographic concentration in river basins and potential climate changes, safety in valleys is only possible if protective water management and other disciplines cooperate. In selected river basins, exemplary new methods are being tested, strategies developed and pilot projects implemented. Du ...
