SPAN Partners
SPAN brings together four regions in four EU Member States belonging to the ‘North-West Europe’ zone as defined by the European Interreg III B programme: Wallonia (Belgium), the Republic of Ireland, Northern Ireland (United Kingdom) and Champagne-Ardenne (France).
In each of these regions, the originality of the SPAN partnership lies in the fact that it unites an organisation on the ground operating in a rural or an urban environment and an academic partner.
The project leader is the Institut de Gestion de l'Environnement et d'Aménagement du Territoire (Institute for Environmental Management and Town and Country Planning) at Université Libre de Bruxelles (ULB-IGEAT).
The research-action programme undertaken in the pilot territories is backed up by a series of networking, training and information activities. Theme-based workshops, transnational exchanges of practitioners, colloquiums and seminars all provide opportunities to broaden the scope of the debate to include all those involved in territorial development in North-West Europe and beyond. By gradually compiling databases containing details of those behind development, the most significant experiments carried out and the vocabulary used, it is possible to capitalise on the project results and make these available in real time. The periodic newsletter SPANews and all the project’s publications are widely circulated. www.span-eu.org
