Parallel Workshop Session: Workshop 1.3 Core-Periphery Challenges SIESTA Experiences Spatial Indicators for a Europe 2020 Strategy Territorial Analysis ESPON Internal Seminar 2012 “Territorial Development Opportunities in Europe and its Neighbourhood Fostering Global Competitiveness”
At the end of the 1960’s, the world was characterised by a clear distinction between a small number of countries with high technology (USA, Northwest Europe, Japan) and a countries characterized by export of primary products. By the beginning of the 21st century, there was a growing difference between the group of countries that export energy or mineral resources and the industrialised countries. In Europe the EU has integrated new Member States into its economy: it has become stronger itself instead of seeing neighbours developing into new global players. At the same time, there are growing international players in the neighbourhood of the EU, notably Russia, Turkey, Tunisia, and Morocco. Stimulus map Countries´s profiles for trade exports, 1967-2006
Workshop 1.3 – key questions for ESPON projects What are the main territorial trends or observations from your project - for Europe, its regions and cities - in relation to “territorial imbalances, regional disparities, polycentric development, resources efficiency”? Please select maximum 2 maps from your project and include maximum 5 bullet points that could illustrate and synthesize this question. Maximum use 3-4 slides for showing ESPON evidence on this question. 2. How do developments in Europe´s neighborhood influence the territorial development in Europe and vice-versa (according to your mind / your ESPON findings)? Please include maximum 3 bullet points that could illustrate and synthesize this question, as much as possible based on your project results and on the case studies developed. Please use 1 slide to answer to this question. 3. What opportunities and challenges exists for Europe and its neighbourhood for increasing competitiveness through further cooperation and integration? (according to your mind / your ESPON findings)? Please include maximum 3 bullet points that could illustrate and synthesize this question. Please use 1 slide to answer to this question.
