ESPON 2013 Research and UK Development Strategies

ESPON Sign

A joint event hosted by London South Bank University, CLG, ESPON UK Contact Point and RTPI Networks

14 February 2011, London South Bank University

In November 2010, the first “Synthesis Report” from the ESPON 2013 programme was published, summarising results from the projects undertaken so far and reflecting on their implications for European territorial development policy. This workshop, along with another held in Manchester on 2 December 2010, will explore the potential policy use of ESPON and help shape the UK policy response to the programme. Its outputs will be reflected in a national synthesis report specifically for UK policymakers.
