  3. ET2050Consortium

  4. FromProject Specifications: The ESPON Monitoring Committee, DG Regio and the ESPON Coordination Unit wish to start a territorial vision-building process that involves relevant stakeholdersat European, national and regional level, having 2050 as time horizon

  5. ET2050 Methodology Scientifically-driven (what may happen in the future?) Politically-driven (what we would like to happen?)

  6. Population: from 514 to 530 inh. Population Change 2010-2030 by MULTIPOLES

  7. GDP a.a.: 1,89 % 45 regions bellow 1,00 % GDP Growth 2010-2030 (Baseline) by MASST3

  8. Trade by companies located in Germany (M€) EUROSTAT

  9. Trade by companies located in Spain (M€)

  10. Baseline Scenario: Key Territorial Trends towards 2030

  11. Baseline Scenario: Key Territorial Trends towards 2030 Loosing Population

  12. Baseline Scenario: Key Territorial Trends towards 2030 Loosing Population Loosing Population and growing less that EU average

  13. Baseline Scenario: Key Territorial Trends towards 2030 Loosing Population Loosing Population and growing less that EU average Growing less that EU average

  14. Baseline Scenario: Key Territorial Trends towards 2030 Increasing Polarisation on Global Gateways Growing more that EU average Loosing Population Loosing Population and growing less that EU average Growing less that EU average

  15. European Territorial Strategy A : Promotion of Global Cities A

  16. European Territorial Strategy B: Promotion of Networks of Cities B

  17. European Territorial Strategy C: Promotion of Rural and Peripheral Regions C

  18. Scenarios 2030, the Crisis Aftermath Roberto Camagni, POLIMI ESPON Territorial Scenarios and Vision for 2050 • 4rd December 2013 Vlinius

  19. Summary of assumptions in the scenarios “Baseline scenario: No change in economic fundamentals and structure; no change in policies A: “Megas” scenario: Market driven scenario; budget reduced for cohesion policies; concentration of investments in European large cities. B: “Cities” scenario: Present welfare system reinforced; budget maintained for cohesion policies; concentration of investments in second rank cities. C: “Regions” scenario: Strong public welfare system; budget significantly increased for cohesion policies; concentration of investments in rural and cohesion area 21

  20. Conclusions on aggregate GDP growth (2030) • New 12 countries grow more with respect to Old 15 countries, but less than before. • The B “Cities” scenario is the most expansionary: territorial capital is better exploited than in the other scenarios • New 12 countries grow less in the C “Regions” scenario. . 22

  21. Conclusions on Regional Disparities in the Baseline Total regional disparities will increase In the past 20 years convergence among EU countries could more than offset increases in intra-national disparities This will not happen in the future (and is already visible during the present crisis) 23

  22. Conclusions on National Disparities in the Baseline Eurostat MASST3 24

  23. Total Disparities in Scenarios A “megas” C “regions” B “cities” Total Disparities “Cities” Scenario is the most cohesive! ”Megas” Scenario is less cohesive

  24. Between Countries Disparities in the scenarios C “regions” A “megas” B “cities”

  25. Inside Countries Disparities (Theil Index by Scenario) ) A “megas” B “cities” C “regions” “Regions” scenario is the most cohesive, as expected, followed by the “Cities”

  26. Sensitivity analysis on the Baseline Scenario Baseline is not meant to be the most likely scenario. A sensitivity analysis was run, changing single exogenous assumptions inside the MASST model: • Higher internal inflation rates in New 12 Countries with respect to Old 15:  higher control on wages, productivity  external competitiveness • Increased tax rates in “vicious” countries (too high public debt):  lower growth potential • Higher FDI increase in New 12 countries:  higher growth? Not proved: new investments generate higher imports)

  27. Sensitivity analysis: lower inflation rates in NMCs ------ Dotted lines refer to the Baseline Scenario Total reg. disparities Between-country This lever has strong effects on growth rates in NMCs; new assunptions generate a strong decrease in inter-national disparities and a light increase in tot. disparities Within country disparities Note: Inflation in New 12 countries is lowered from 5% (baseline) to 3%. Baseline assumption for Old15 member countries is 2.5%.

  28. Higher taxation in wide-public debt countries Total disparities Between-country Within-country This measure generates higher inter-national disparities ----- Baseline scenario

  30. Exploratory Scenarios & Variants for 2010-2050

  31. Baseline Scenario The European Funds Allocation across NUTS3 A (MEGAs) B (Cities) C (Regions) 1.0 % 0.5 0.25% of total EU Structural Funds

  32. Scenario A: GDP per capita Difference to Baseline Scenario 2051 Difference to Baseline Scenario (%) 2051

  33. Scenario B: GDP per capita Difference to Baseline Scenario 2051 Difference to Baseline Scenario (%) 2051

  34. Scenario C: GDP per capita Difference to Baseline Scenario 2051 Difference to Baseline Scenario (%) 2051

  45. Outline of the European Territorial Vision • Values and policy paradigms • Europe in the World • Europe and its Neighborhoods • Changes for Europe as a whole • The Future of the European Territory • European Territorial Governance

  46. 2050 Vision: summing up framework elements New borders of the EU: Deep and sustainable democracy in an enlarged EU and EFTA space Co-development with Neighbouring Countries (namely the Euro-Mediterranean) Technology induced changes: «everywhere connectivity» will change our social, learning and work, manufacturing, energy, daily habits and mobility towards more flexible time use and polycentric landscapes Demographic, economic and social changes: ageing everywhere in the world, except in Africa (especially SSA), deceleration of growth and trade of goods, more services & intangibles, «smartphone»-centred lifestyle, socio-ecological transition towards green and blue economy, within Europe, a more educated & mobile & Creative workforce and diversified jobs. Energy, Transport and climate changes: «low» but not «post-carbon» Europe; smart and sustainable transport; adaptation to climate change (mitigation is not enough).

  47. 2050 Vision: summing up territorial key elements EU governance changes: EU economic recovery heading to more integration («out of need, not out of love»), but with a lean model Paradigm shifts: qualitative more than quantitative growth and productivity concepts, efficient spending on education, health and other territorial services (outcomes measured with beyond GDP indicators). Convergence of GDP is no more the «totem»/paradigm indicator, territorial efficiency/diversity and territorial cohesion objectives are the new totems. Polycentric development: More connectivity within and across different urban regions’ layers: large cities (less «Pentagon-centric» network), medium-to-small networks of cities, compact cities. Urban sprawl is halted. More «rurban regions», but also revitilized «bioregions»

  48. 2050 Vision: summing up territorial key elements A new Cohesion Strategy: • Complementarity between EU territorial cohesion funds and other EU solidarity funds (to prevent financial crisis, to enable energy interdependence, EU border management solidarity). • Place-based approach in the different functional regions of Europe, within and across the national borders. • Territorial capital and European public goods agenda, based on high-level policy negotiation and agreed criteria of EU-wide relevance, place-based nature and verifiability (with “beyond GDP” impact assessment indicators)
