ECRU is able to support actions and strategies for the development and promotion of the territory in respect of biodiversity, the sustainable and sharing local development with respect of the commons.
The promotion of local development and more generally of the territory in terms of exchange and integration between rural and urban (downtown and suburbs, etc.) must act transversely at different levels: programming at European level, integrated planning and transnational analysis needs, innovative strategies.
The possible actions are so varied, complex and also require an additional effort of interaction:
- choice and combination of the most appropriate policies for development on the basis of economic, social, environmental, cultural and institutional investors
- identification of development opportunities that the EU offers to the territories (increasingly difficult to grasp without an integrated approach and a transnational perspective)
- expert in reading ability of EU policies, the territory’s needs and the needs of the different target groups (business, nature, structural deficits and potential benefits, etc.).
- provision of expert resources and qualified, able to combine design skills, speed and flexibility in the ability to create and animate networks of European dimensions
- creation of spaces, physical and virtual, where it is possible to think, reflect, discuss strategies and tools required to prepare in accordance with the prospects of the new EU programming, especially in terms of capacity for integrated approaches
- ability to design proposals for local sustainable development in both the public and private sectors.
