Start date: Jun 30, 2012, End date: Dec 30, 2014,

About 70 percent of central Europeans live in urban regions. Here, local and regional authorities are increasingly challenged by a steady growth of population and an increasing request for space for both economic activities and housing. Actions are therefore needed against urban sprawl that threatens to lead to a reduction of natural and open areas used for recreational purposes. Furthermore, the ...

Start date: Sep 30, 2008, End date: Sep 29, 2011,

Currently, the rail network in the project area is in bad shape, especially in border regions which is hindering the full use of potentials within the entire area. In the German/Polish border area, a regional stalemate situation has evolved, which cannot be handled successfully without transnational input. The same situation can be found in the Polish/Ukraine border area due to different track gau ...

Rehabilitation and Development in Mining Regions (READY)

Start date: Nov 30, 2003, End date: Feb 17, 2007,

Large-scale environmental problems and difficulties in urban development are a barrier to structural change throughout the mining regions of CADSES. In many cases a monostructured economy, the prevalence of paternalistic structures, a negative image and the persistence of environmental damage with remaining risk elements require an integrated approach to rehabilitate and develop mining regions. Th ...

Spatial Information Systems for Transnational Environmental Management of Pro-tected Areas and Regions in CADSES (SISTEMaPARC)

Start date: Dec 31, 2003, End date: Dec 30, 2006,

Protected cross-border regions in the CADSES area face similar problems. Often frontiers divide one region of cultural and natural heritage into more than one national park, biosphere reserve, nature reserve or protected landscape area and they are situated in two or more countries. As a consequence, two or more administrations, management structures and - if existing - spatial information systems ...

Consolidation of Polycentric Urban Systems through the Promotion of the Settlement of Retail Trade Businesses in Inner Urban Areas (VITAL CITIES)

Start date: Jan 31, 2003, End date: Jun 29, 2006,

The development of new retail locations in green fields far away from urban centres promotes rapid urban sprawl and leads to traffic congestion and environmental problems and contradicts sustainable regional development. The settlement of retail enterprises in city centres can lead to a healthier development structure. The project VITAL CITIES aimed to strengthen polycentric urban systems and to c ...

The ELLA project is the transnational co-operation of nearly all regional spatial planning authorities in the Elbe basin. This partnership between national and regional partners that are responsible for spatial planning, water management and agriculture, realises almost full spatial coverage of the catchment area of the Elbe and even neighbouring regions. Flood prevention and common management app ...
