In short • Short history of Rotterdam South • National Program Rotterdam South in 2011 • Program monitoring • Integrated reporting
Origins of the NPRZ (1) • Until the nineties only limited attention despite decline after glory years • 90s : center on the Maas • Under new city government in 2002 first specific focus on South • 2006 : Pact on South (€ 1 billion in 10 years, in particular by corporations and municipality)
Origins of the NPRZ (2) • Pact on South Despite investments limited progress in 2009 • Working visit minister: December 2009 Commissioned research by Deetman/Mans (former politician/mayor) • Report by Deetman/Mans: Problems on the South-bank are unique (because of accumulation and volume): Prompts for a massive approach
Working method • Management: The greater good of Rotterdam South is more important than the interests of the organisations involved, continuity • Schools, employers and benefits agencies are the main players • Increased position of submunicipalities' area managers • Rotterdam policy targets translated into minimally proportional results for Zuid (more means, more action) • If necessary, amend applicable legislation (National Government)
Focus • School • Children’s Zones: Schools, the major players • Front-line approach: Practical aid to the family and parenting support • Choosing follow-up educational tracks relevant to the labour market • Work • Career start guarantees • Agreements with employers on work for those on benefits • Housing • Decent and safe house • Improvement quality houses • Infrastructure
Choice of profession and follow-up education • 50% of secondary vocational students in technology and care tracks by 2020, 34% by 2014 • Introductory meetings, traineeships at businesses • Employing business sector professionals in education for six months • Fewer students to pick educational tracks not relevant to the labour market
Work • Career start guarantees: 600 each year • In early stage • For youths from South • Work for those receiving benefits: 1600 each year • Agreements with Work & Income low-skilled jobs Cluster • Be more strict, information on deductions
Housing • Short-term • Expansion 'Rotterdam Act', 100% registration checks, enforcement and control • Existing plans (crisis of association) • Attract entry-level workers, no more auctions • Long-term • Infrastructure • Renovate and improve 35,000 out of 105,000 houses • 12,000 owned by associations • 23,000 privately owned houses
Program monitoring • Many stakeholders • Monitoring progress • Start: same picture of expected results • Same picture of situation of today • Target • Integrated reporting for all at certain interval
Integrated reporting • Integrate 3 main sources of data: • Municipality (Key registers, policy info, etc) • Research institutes + universities (Fieldresearch) • Citizen (Social Media, Crowdsourcing, Citizen score cards) • Transparancy, Open, 24/7, Real time, COP • For all (citizen, program organisation, city council, court of audit (NL and R’dam) • Picture > 1000 words ->GEO
