BSR-network for the improvement of the transregional planning process by improving the communication and decision structure

The project was aiming at the improvement of planning processes by improving the transregional communication and decision structures.

The outcome of the project is a thematic network and a centre of excellence for improving the political (e.g. spatial planning authorities, municipalities, ministries, Governmental and Non-Governmental-Organisations) and entrepreneurial policy-making-processes in the fields of spatial planning, transport and regional development. Within the network/centre problems and weak spots related to the presently implemented mechanism, instruments and management methods have been discussed and a new best-practice approach has been developed for supporting and improving the planning processes. For this, several activities for technology transfer have been carried out in order to train decision-makers on the newly developed approach for improving their performance in spatial planning, regional development and transport/logistics.
