  6. Capitalisation on urban experience and knowledge URBACT Project Results published 2011 (Projects call 1) URBACT final conferences and events (Projects call 2) URBACT Workstreams launched 2012 To bring forward URBACT’s answers for integrated & sustainable urban development to urban threats (report “Cities of Tomorrow”) To identify, harness and transfer good practices from other ETC programmes (INTERREG IVC, ESPON, INTERACT) and relevant organisations To issue practical recommendations to support European cities

  7. Title of presentation I Monday, 08 September 2014 I Page 7 A wake-up call for cities • The Cities of Tomorrow report is a wake-up call. European cities are ripe with marvellous opportunities but these are also under threat. • The crisis has considerably worsened the situation and dramatically reduced the resources available to cities. However, most of the threats are due to long term underlying trends that started much earlier. • Significant proportions of Europe’s youth were ‘NEET’ – not in education, employment or training – even before the current financial and economic crisis. • In this context, business as usual is simply burying one’s head in the sand.

  8. Responses 6 URBACT Workstreams Workstream 1 Demographic challenge in urban dvpt Workstream 2 Cities for more & better jobs Workstream 3 Inclusion through social innovation Workstream4 Addressing socio- spacial polarisation Workstream 5 Sustainable mobility & accessibility Workstream 6 Energy efficiency in housing

  10. Monday, 08 September 2014 I Page 10 Radicalchangeinframeworkconditions of development Noveltiesof the presentsituation: • for a number of years there will be no economic growth • the capacities of the public sector will be much more limited than so far • the tolerance level of the people (regarding inequalities) is sharply decreasing

  11. Title of presentation I Monday, 08 September 2014 I Page 13 Contradicting assumptions between goals Even strategies designed within an integrated framework lead to conflicting views • Economic growth is considered as pre-assumption for creating more jobs while the growth paradigm is heavily criticized from the perspective of shrinking cities. • Existing technical solutions are emphasized in handling energy and transport problems while new service delivery models, the inclusion of unusual suspects and smart financing are requested against marginalization of the youth. • Clear energy saving and emission reduction targets are required for stimulating the demand for retrofit while the dominance of energy considerations is heavily criticized from the perspective of deprived areas and the fight against socio-spatial segregation.

  31. OECD delimitation of functional urban areas • OECD identification of FUAs • population grid from the global dataset Landscan (2000). Polycentric cores and the hinterlands of FUAs identified on the basis of commuting data, including all settlements from where at least 15% of the workers commute to any of the core settlement(s). • OECD defined four categories (total functional urban area): • small urban areas with a population of 50 – 200 thousand; • medium-sized urban areas (200 – 500 thousand), • metropolitan areas (500 thousand – 1,5 million); • large metropolitan areas (above 1,5 million population). • 29 OECD countries: 1175 functional urban areas. Public database: www.oecd.org/gov/regional/measuringurban • European OECD countries: 659 functional urban areas (29 large metropolitan areas and 88 metropolitan areas).

  32. What is RURBAN…?

  33. EU level interventions required for integrated urban development • For the success of EU2020 integrated planning (green and social economy strategies) is needed on the level of functional regions. • This new approach needs policy guidance and financial support from the EU, initiating cross-sectoral and cross-territorial planning on the functional region level. Integrated solutions are needed: green economy (retrofitting), social economy (including the low skilled)

  34. New elemenst in European policy making for the 2014-2020 period • ITI: place-based integrated approach, potentially on metropolitan level (larger cities) • CLLD: people-based integrated interventions on local (smaller municipalities) and neighbourhood level • Horizon2020: spatially blind innovative economic actions

  35. Integrated sustainable urbandevelopment Example: Member State A Total allocation for ITI at least 5% of Member State’s ERDF, delegated to cities Regional ERDF OP National/sectoral ERDF OP I T I ESF OP + additional ESF and CF, if appropriate City 3 CF OP  City 1 City 2 City 3   City 25 City …

  36. The metropolitan agenda and the new EU planning period (2014-2020) The developmentof toolsofdifferentpolicies is speedingup • CohesionPolicy 320-350 bneur (?) • within ERDF theITIs • withinEAFRD theCLLDs • innovativeurbanactionsaround 0,3 bn (?) • Innovation Policy: Horizon 2020 appr. 80 bneur

  37. Potential links between metropolitan ideas and European policies • narrow metropolitan areas (zero-sum game): ITIs, led by cities, in conjunction to CLLDs, led by public-private-thirdsector partnerships in smaller areas • the need for defined boundaries and (at least delegated) fixed institutional structure • broader metropolitan areas (win-win type cooperation):link to regional innovation strategies, led by administrative regions and to Horizon2020 innovation partnerships • can and should be kept on flexible spatial level • RURBAN areas?
