Plan for presentation and discussion

• What kind of GP’s are already gathered ?

• What is their relavancy for SP in regions ?

• What types of planning issues should be represented by GP’s better ?


Good Practices in Spatial PlanningA list as of 2.06.2010

In 2009 described and uploaded in the project Data Base were 6 GP’s (including 2 from the BaltCoast project in M-V, Germany)

1. (euro) Region Baltic development - strategic plan 2. Local junction in VBN network3. GIS based communication in planning4. Pilot MSP5. Conflict management in the offshore area6. Natura 2000 management via voluntary agreements


Good Practices in Spatial PlanningA list as of 2.06.2010

There are 12 more GP’s ready (or almost ready) to be uploaded and another 8 in the pipe line

1. Information System for coordination of SP in a transnational Region2. Sust. residential area planned with future inhabitants & business participation 3. Revitalization of abandoned heritage or military areas4. SP strategy to adopt a major international initiative5. Promotion of innovation centers by strategic city / metro planning6. Compact and green city based on trolleybus transport system


Good Practices in Spatial PlanningA list as of 2.06.2010, continued

7. Sust. transport projects supported with IT models and external funds

8. Waterways Ring - sustainable and network oriented water tourism

9. Regional Park – informal planning for SD of hinterland county

10. Urban – rural development cooperation

11. SP for preventive protection of flood prone areas

12. Comprehensive watershed management

13. Climate responsible city / region

SP – spatial planning, SD – sustainable development


Good Practices in Spatial PlanningA list as of 2.06.2010, continued

14. Motorways of the Baltic Sea (regional / local impacts)

15. Integrated Local Development Concepts (ILEK)

16. Sustainable Village

17. Integrated landscape planning, also as an interactive tool and governance aid

18. Territorial Impact Assessment (TIA)

19. Plans / programs & network governance for sust. regional development

20. Integrating environment management and spatial planning of BSPA’s incl. the wetland areas


Good Practices in Spatial Planning

So the minimum quantity will be reached … but ...are these GP’s

• relevant for the spatial planning / management situations ?

• good enough to be used / adopted in the regions

Which types of GP’s are still lacking ?



ChallengesIn recent years, a new attitude to planning has emerged - more positive, participatory and project- oriented.The plan is now understood as a “project of a city or region” - a process to anticipate the character and location of key features of a region and to design the most efficient means for their execution and realisation.

What are the good practices for ? what is the sense of studying them?

The GP’s should help to: • understand how to solve important issues and/or

contributions to the quality of different environments (also where SP has been absent so far)

• check feasibility of methodological advancements in spatial planning / management, verify their usefulness in the regional / local practice
