Urban regions as drivers of networking and territorial cohesion in the Baltic Sea Region

On the 24^th and 25^th of November 2009, Nordregio will host a conference with the aim of following up on the Long-term perspective for the BSR (initiated by VASAB), the EU Baltic Sea Strategy, and the EU green book on territorial cohesion. The conference will explore the potential implications of these three policy documents with regard to urban regions as potential drivers of networking, spatial integration, and territorial cohesion.

Policy-makers and practitioners dealing with urban and regional planning and development issues from the local level up to BSR level are most welcome.

Nordregio kindly asks you to check back later for the final programme here.
