Title: Smart development for rural areas?
Code:15UNIV02
Thursday 15th at 09:00 – 10:45
This workshop raises questions about the future of European rural areas, in the light of the new H2020 policy. The EU growth strategy for 2020 builds on the ambition to become "a smart, sustainable and inclusive economy". Does this new orientation of smart specialization apply to rural areas, which currently make up the majority of the EU's land surface and involve millions of people? Or is it reserved for the cities and their suburbs which are the world's most urbanized area, with an expected growth of the urban population?

Title: Energy issues in regional and urban development
Code: 15UNIV04
Thursday 15th at 11:15 – 13:00
A joint workshop with ERSA & AESOP which addresses the challenges and opportunities faced by cities and regions with regard to energy and climate change issues. Energy efficiency objectives and risk mitigation strategies affect many aspects of everyday life and economic activity(planning, transport, agriculture, housing, production, etc.). This workshop aims to promote understanding of how energy issues challenge existing regional, urban and development models. It also questions the way these issues may help to reduce costs and promote more geographically-balanced development.
