An ICLRD report commissioned by the Councils outlines the options for this strategic alliance and the final memorandum: <em><a href=\"http://iclrd.org/web2/2010/12/01/developing-a-strategic-alliance-between-newry-and-mourne-district-council-and-the-louth-local-authorities/\">Developing a Strategic Alliance between Newry and Mourne District Council and Louth Local Authorities--Background Report</a>.</em> The report provides cases studies and explores different legal instruments for cross-border cooperation that can be useful for other local authorities.\nSupport from central government authorities in Dublin (Department of Environment, Heritage and Local Government) and Belfast (Department for Regional Development) were also important in reaching this agreement. The North South Ministerial Council Joint Secretaries, Mary Bunting and Anne Barrington welcomed the launch of the Memorandum of Understanding:\n“This is a very positive development and an excellent example of practical, mutually beneficial cross border co-operation. The four themes for co-operation have a direct impact for the people of Newry and Mourne and Louth at a time of constraint on resources.

It sets out a non-statutory framework for collaboration at different levels within the public sector which should result in mutual benefits”.\nThe idea of a non-statutory framework for cooperation between the <em>National Spatial Strategy</em> (NSS) and the <em>Regional Development Strategy</em> (RDS) was first introduced in the 2006 ICLRD study, funded by Inter<em>Trade</em>Ireland (ITI). Since then, we have continued to shine a light on the advantages of the framework through our research, conferences and dialogue with senior policy makers.\nThe original team members on the ITI-funded study,<em><a href=\"http://dev.iclrd.org/iclrd2/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/Spatial_Strategieson_the_Island_of_Ireland_year-1.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">Spatial Strategies on the Island of Ireland—Development of a Framework for Collaborative Action</a>,</em> included Jim Berry, Brendan Bartley, Alastair Adair, John Driscoll, Caroline Creamer, Neale Blair , Stanley McGreal and Francois Vigier. They are to be thanked for their efforts; as are both Departments for persisting in their own efforts to draft and publish a joint document. This study also set a benchmark for how ICLRD engages senior policy makers and practitioners on a steering committee, in this case chaired by Aidan Gough of ITI.\nThe deadline for comments on the collaborative framework is 5p.m., Monday 11 April 2011.

The Impact of the Proposed Governance and   Planning Reforms Across the Island of Ireland on Inter-Jurisdictional   Planning</strong></em>.  Published at the end of June 2010, this report   considers the implications of the proposed governance and spatial   planning reforms in both jurisdictions on future collaboration.  The   report can be downloaded from <a href=\"../../web/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/ICLRD-Report-Final-All-Change-But-Any-Alignment-Sept10.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">here</a>.\nThis  report comes out of a 12-month research programme on the  proposed  reform of local government in Northern Ireland as part of the  wider  process of the Review of Public Administration (RPA), and the  planning  and governance reforms proposed for the Republic of Ireland  under the <em>Planning and Development Bill 2009</em> and the Green  Paper on Local Government Reform.  The research has been  carried out by  a multi-disciplinary team within ICLRD and has been  funded under our  CroSPlaN Initiative, an INTERREG IVA funded-project  which is being  administered by the SEUPB.\nThis report captures  many of the features, opportunities and  challenges associated with the  reform of governance and planning  systems.  It notes that scope exists  for greater engagement on spatial  planning issues either side of the  border; and that the extent to which  this can happen is dependent on the  nature and form of governance  structures and systems in place.  It  traces the history of the proposed  reforms in both jurisdictions from  their point of origin to their  current state of play.  The report  concludes that planning policy in  Northern Ireland and the Republic of  Ireland must recognise, and indeed  embrace, the movement of people,  goods and services across the Irish  border so as to ensure the vitality  of the island’s economy and, in the  current climate, drive forward an  efficiency agency; and that change  in both jurisdictions is necessary to  make this happen more fluidly.   Sounding a note of caution, however, it  warns that the achievement of  economies of scale should not be the only  reason used to ‘sell’ any  reform process.','Report on Impact of Proposed Government and Planning Reforms on Inter-Jurisdictional Planning','','publish','closed','closed','','report-on-impact-of-proposed-government-and-planning-reforms-on-inter-jurisdictional-planning','','','2010-09-01 10:05:44','2010-09-01 15:05:44','',0,'http://iclrd.org/web2/?p=1958',0,'post','',0),(1968,10,'2008-11-21 10:18:43','2008-11-21 15:18:43','[caption id=\"\" align=\"alignright\" width=\"288\" caption=\"Sheena O&#39;Dowd &amp; Ciaran Tracey, Leitrim County Council (Planning Department)\"]&nbsp;\n<div style=\"text-align: auto;\"><img src=\"http://iclrd.org/images/sct%20study/smalltownsstudylaunch6.jpg\" alt=\"Sheena ODowd &amp; Ciaran Tracey, Leitrim County Council (Planning Department)\" width=\"288\" height=\"204\" /></div>\n&nbsp;\n&nbsp;\n&nbsp;\n[/caption]\n<a href=\"http://iclrd.org/documents/Small%20Connected%20Towns/launch%20presentations/01%20-%20Seminar%20-%20Launch%20Programme.pdf\"><strong>Seminar and Launch Programme</strong></a>\nProgramme of the day\'s events.\n<a href=\"http://iclrd.org/documents/Small%20Connected%20Towns/launch%20presentations/02%20-%20ICLD%20-%20Small%20Towns%20Project%20-%20JDriscoll.pdf\"><strong>ICLRD &amp; Small Towns Study</strong></a>\nPresentation by John Driscoll, Director, ICLRD on the work of ICLRD and the background to the small cross-border towns and villages project.\n<a href=\"http://iclrd.org/documents/Small%20Connected%20Towns/launch%20presentations/03%20-%20Fostering%20Mutual%20Benefits%20-%20CCreamer%20et%20al.pdf\"><strong>Fostering Mutual Benefits in Cross-Border Areas</strong></a>\nPresentation by the Research Team outlining specific background to study, focus of study, case study areas and findings and recommendations emerging from the team\'s research.\n<a href=\"http://iclrd.org/documents/Small%20Connected%20Towns/launch%20presentations/04%20-%20Response%20on%20Cross-Border%20Mobility%20-%20PClarke.pdf\"><strong>Cross-Border Mobility</strong></a>\nPresentation by Dr. Patricia Clarke, Centre for Cross-Border Studies on increasing cross-border mobility and the challenges and opportunities this generates.\n<a href=\"http://iclrd.org/documents/Small%20Connected%20Towns/launch%20presentations/05%20-%20Response%20-%20Cross-Border%20Coop%20-%20Local%20Gov%20-%20CTracey.pdf\"><strong>Cross-Border Co Operation: A Role for Local Government</strong></a>\nPresentation by Ciarán Tracey, Senior Planner, Leitrim County Council on the role of local government in the promotion and facilitation of cross-border co operation on both an intra-sectoral and cross-sectoral basis.\n<a href=\"http://iclrd.org/documents/Small%20Connected%20Towns/launch%20presentations/06%20-%20Response%20on%20Local%20Potential%20-%20Role%20Community%20-%20CFollis.pdf\"><strong>Competitive Advantage and Local Potential: A Role for the Community</strong></a>\nPresentation by Carol Follis, Irish Central Border Area Network (ICBAN) on the role of the community and voluntary sector in untapping local potential.\n<a href=\"http://iclrd.org/documents/Small%20Connected%20Towns/launch%20presentations/07%20-%20Building%20Competitiveness%20through%20Partnership%20a%20Role%20for%20the%20Private%20Sector%20%20-%20Niall%20Birthistle%20North%20West%20Chambers.pdf\"><strong>Building Competitiveness Through Partnership: A Role for the Private Sector</strong></a>\nSpeech by Mr. Niall birthistle, Chairman, North West Chambers of Commerce Initiative\n<a href=\"http://iclrd.org/documents/Small%20Connected%20Towns/launch%20presentations/Launch%20Speech%20-%20Ms%20Deirdre%20Ryan%20IFI.pdf\"><strong>Launch Speech - Ms. Diedre Ryan, Board Member, IFI</strong></a>\nSpeech by Ms. Deirdre Ryan, Board Member, International Fund for Ireland as part of launch programme\n<a href=\"http://iclrd.org/documents/Small%20Connected%20Towns/launch%20presentations/Launch%20Speech%20-%20Eamon%20Scanlon%20TD.pdf\"><strong>Launch Speech - Mr. Eamon Scanlon T.D.</strong></a>\nSpeech by Mr. Eamon Scanlon, T.D. for Sligo-North Leitrim, on the occasion of the launch of the ICLRD report, \"Fostering Mutual Benefits in Cross-border Areas: The Challenges and Opportunities in Connecting Irish Border Towns and Villages\"','Small Connected Towns Study - Launch Presentations','','publish','closed','closed','','small-connected-towns-study-launch-presentations','','','2008-11-21 10:18:43','2008-11-21 15:18:43','',0,'http://iclrd.org/web2/?p=1968',0,'post','',0),(1973,10,'2009-08-01 10:25:16','2009-08-01 15:25:16','This ICLRD research study team has developed case studies on six different communities to better understand the linkages between mixed income/integrated developments and emerging policy agendas for promoting sustainable communities.

ICLRD’s research brings together universities, government and community groups to address the spatial aspects of peace and reconciliation at three scales: the island of Ireland; the EU regional which includes cross-border and cooperation among local councils on each side of the border; and local with a particular focus on encouraging communities to take a proactive role in creating a stable society.\nTo see all of ICLRD papers and publications, including its research reports, click<a href=\"http://dev.iclrd.org/iclrd2/resources-library/\"> here</a>.\n<h4><a href=\"http://dev.iclrd.org/iclrd2/activities-2/training-and-capacity-building-2/\"><strong>Training and Capacity Building</strong></a></h4>\nA core activity for ICLRD is to offer professional education programmes for public officials, civic leaders, non-governmental organisations and other practitioners involved in local, regional and national development. Devolution in Northern Ireland, the shifting of new responsibilities to local authorities, and cross-border programmes that increase the role of local governments in developing and managing their cross-border programs all point to the need for new capacity building programmes. ICLRD capacity building activities emphasise knowledge transfer through our conferences and technical workshops. Our research activities and expanded networks provide timely case study materials, best practices, and operational linkages to EU cross-border programmes. For more information on current and past training and capacity-building activities <a href=\"http://dev.iclrd.org/iclrd2/activities-2/training-and-capacity-building-2/\">click here</a>.&nbsp;\n<h4><strong>Advocacy and Demonstration - Evidence-Based Planning</strong></h4>\nIn its research on inter-jurisdictional and cross-border planning ICLRD has shown that one of the first entry points to developing cooperation among central and local governments is providing information and shared evidence on common issues such as housing, trade, environment, transport and services. The process of collection, joint analysis, reports and forums can help to build an agenda for action around common interests and challenges. In collaboration with the Maynooth University Social Sciences Institute (<a href=\"https://www.maynoothuniversity.ie/social-sciences-institute\">MUSSI)</a> and its All-Island Research Observatory (<a href=\"https://airo.maynoothuniversity.ie/\">AIRO</a>) initiative, the ICLRD is supporting evidence-informed decision-making.\n<h4><strong>Technical Assistance and Outreach</strong></h4>\nThe ICLRD provides technical assistance and outreach to local government agencies and communities to help them deliver specific programmes often identified through ICLRD’s training or research activities. Recent examples include:\n<ul>\n 	<li>Assisting the Newry and Mourne District Council and the Louth Local Authorities to prepare and adopt a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) for cooperation in: emergency planning, renewable energy and green technology, tourism and recreation, sustainable economic growth and job creation (<a href=\"http://dev.iclrd.org/iclrd2/resources-library/cross-border-cooperation-and-planning/newry-dundalk-strategic-alliance/\">documentation available here)</a>.</li>\n 	<li>Supporting the cross-border development associations of Truagh, Aughnacloy, Aghaloo, The Bawn, Loughans, Clara and Carrickroe in the Monaghan/Tyrone Border area to jointly develop a community business and social economy plan.</li>\n 	<li>Supporting Armagh City and District Council and Monaghan County Council in the drafting and adoption of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) which reflects the ambition of the councils to progress a number of strategic initiatives for the mutual benefit of all those living, working and visiting the region.&nbsp; Key areas of focus included:&nbsp;Tourism, Economic Development and Prosperity and Shared Services; selected because of their long-term strategic importance to the sustainable development of the region.</li>\n 	<li>Facilitating the local councils in the NW Region, and the then North West Partnership forum, to&nbsp;facilitate cross-border engagement at a strategic level, and develop an&nbsp;<a href=\"http://dev.iclrd.org/iclrd2/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/NWPF-Action-Plan-Final-compressed.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Action Plan (opens in a new tab)\">Action Plan</a>.&nbsp;&nbsp;This was developed with financial support from the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade \'Reconciliation Fund\'.</li>\n 	<li>Providing&nbsp;external engagement support to the Irish Central Border Area Network Ltd.

The theme of this two-day event is <em>Planning for a New Future: Can Planning and Cross-Border Cooperation Deliver Change in Ireland and Europe?</em> The conference is organised as part of our CroSPlaN Initiative that is funded by the Special EU Programmes Body under the INTERREG IVA Programme.\nThe island of Ireland faces many challenges due to the severe downturn in the world economy, stagnant development and the legacy of over a decade of sometimes ill-planned development. These challenges have knock-on implications for cross-border cooperation, sustainable development and engaging local authorities, businesses and residents in shaping their communities.\nThe Seventh Annual ICLRD Conference considers models of collaboration across borders and between local government and other key local agencies. Both presenters and delegates alike are being asked to identify workable new approaches to planning and the delivery of services. The conference is organised around three main sessions:\n<ul>\n	<li><em>The Collaborative Framework:</em> Cross-Border Regionalism in Action – the role of new regionalism in enhancing cooperation within functional regions.</li>\n	<li><em>Leadership through Planning</em>: Demonstrating Leadership in Achieving the ‘Common Good’ – debating the role of communities, the private sector, and planners in learning from the past and planning a new future.</li>\n	<li><em>Planning the Future:</em> Rethinking the Role of Planning, Governance and Community – bringing together delegates and speakers to consider the role and future of planning and local and regional development and the opportunities and implications of emerging EU agendas on policy and practice.</li>\n</ul>\nConfirmed speakers include: Prof. Allan Wallis, University of Colorado; Prof. Karina Pallagst, Department of International Planning Systems, Kaiserslautern University of Technology, Germany; Prof. Mary Corcoran, NUI Maynooth; and Ms. Alice Charles, Alice Charles Planning; Mr. Vincent Goodstadt, Honorary Professor with the School of Environment and Development, University of Manchester; and Sir Roy McNulty CBE, Chairman, ILEX Regeneration Company. In addition to representatives from the Department of Environment, Community and Local Government in Dublin and the Department of Environment in Belfast, we also hope that Mr Colin Wolfe from the EU Commission’s Directorate General for Regional Policy will be able to join us in the closing session. On the evening of January 19th, Frank McDonald of the Irish Times will be launching the next issue of Borderlands, The Journal of Spatial Planning in Ireland.\nIf you have attended our conferences in the past, you will know how we strive to make the conference of interest to a diverse audience – namely policy-makers, regional and cross-border agencies, planners, local government officials, private sector representatives, elected officials, community development agencies and academics. Our events are recognised for their thought-provoking speakers and the opportunity for discussion, debate and networking around the key issues of strategic spatial planning and local development both on the island of Ireland and elsewhere.\nWe look forward to seeing you in Dundalk on the 19th.

These challenges have knock-on implications for cross-border cooperation, sustainable development and engaging local authorities, businesses and residents in shaping their communities.\nThe Seventh Annual ICLRD Conference considers models of collaboration across borders and between local government and other key local agencies.  Both presenters and delegates alike are being asked to identify workable new approaches to planning and the delivery of services.  The conference is organised around three main sessions:\n<ul>\n	<li><em>The Collaborative Framework:</em> Cross-Border Regionalism in Action – the role of new regionalism in enhancing cooperation within functional regions.</li>\n	<li><em>Leadership through Planning</em>: Demonstrating Leadership in Achieving the ‘Common Good’ – debating the role of communities, the private sector, and planners in learning from the past and planning a new future.</li>\n	<li><em>Planning the Future:</em> Rethinking the Role of Planning, Governance and Community – bringing together delegates and speakers to consider the role and future of planning and local and regional development and the opportunities and implications of emerging EU agendas on policy and practice.</li>\n</ul>\nConfirmed speakers include: Prof. Allan Wallis, University of Colorado; Prof. Karina Pallagst, Department of International Planning Systems, Kaiserslautern University of Technology, Germany; Prof. Mary Corcoran, NUI Maynooth; and Ms. Alice Charles, Alice Charles Planning; Mr. Vincent Goodstadt, Honorary Professor with the School of Environment and Development, University of Manchester; and Sir Roy McNulty CBE, Chairman, ILEX Regeneration Company.  In addition to representatives from the Department of Environment, Community and Local Government in Dublin and the Department of Environment in Belfast, we also hope that Mr Colin Wolfe from the EU Commission’s Directorate General for Regional Policy will be able to join us in the closing session. On the evening of January 19th, Frank McDonald of the Irish Times will be launching the next issue of Borderlands, The Journal of Spatial Planning in Ireland.\nIf you have attended our conferences in the past, you will know how we strive to make the conference of interest to a diverse audience – namely policy-makers, regional and cross-border agencies, planners, local government officials, private sector representatives, elected officials, community development agencies and academics. Our events are recognised for their thought-provoking speakers and the opportunity for discussion, debate and networking around the key issues of strategic spatial planning and local development both on the island of Ireland and elsewhere.\nWe look forward to seeing you in Dundalk on the 19th.

Since then, we have continued to shine a light on the advantages of the framework through our research, conferences and dialogue with senior policy makers. The original research team members included Jim Berry, Brendan Bartley, Alastair Adair, John Driscoll, Caroline Creamer, Neale Blair , Stanley McGreal and Francois Vigier.  They are to be thanked for their efforts; as are both Departments for persisting in their own efforts to draft and publish a joint document. This study also set a benchmark for how ICLRD engages senior policy makers and practitioners on a steering committee, in this case chaired by Aidan Gough of ITI.\n&nbsp;','The Spatial Strategies on the Island of Ireland—Framework for Collaboration','','publish','closed','closed','','the-spatial-strategies-on-the-island-of-ireland-framework-for-collaboration','','','2006-11-08 10:48:07','2006-11-08 15:48:07','',0,'http://iclrd.org/web2/?p=2573',0,'post','',0),(2584,10,'2008-11-08 11:12:08','2008-11-08 16:12:08','<table style=\"text-align: left;\" width=\"575\" border=\"2\" cellspacing=\"2\" cellpadding=\"2\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"vertical-align: top;\" rowspan=\"5\"><a href=\"http://iclrd.org/documents/Small%20Connected%20Towns/Fostering%20Mutual%20Benefits%20-%20Main%20Report.pdf\"><img class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-2585\" title=\"Fostering-Mutual-Befenits-cover\" src=\"http://dev.iclrd.org/iclrd2/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/Fostering-Mutual-Befenits-cover1-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"175\" height=\"252\"></a></td>\n<td><span style=\"color: #808080;\"><em><strong>Title:</strong></em> </span>Fostering Mutual Benefits in Cross-Border Areas: The Challenges and Opportunities in Connecting Irish Border Towns and Villages</td>\n</tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"color: #808080;\"><em><strong> Publication Date: </strong></em><span style=\"color: #000000;\">November </span></span>2008</td>\n</tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"color: #888888;\"><em><strong>Team</strong></em>: <span style=\"color: #000000;\">Caroline Creamer, Neale Blair, Brendan O\'Keeffe, </span></span>Chris Van Egeraat, John Driscoll</td>\n</tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"color: #808080;\"><strong><em>Funding: </em></strong></span>International Fund for Ireland and HEA</td>\n</tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"color: #888888;\"><strong><em>Summary:</em></strong></span> This research considers the relationship and connectivity that exist between five cross-border settlement groupings and identifies and examines the challenges facing, and opportunities within, these ‘micro-regions’.</td>\n</tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"vertical-align: top;\" colspan=\"2\"><a href=\"http://iclrd.org/documents/Small%20Connected%20Towns/Fostering%20Mutual%20Benefits%20-%20Main%20Report.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"><img style=\"width: 175px;

Meath CDB\n</span></strong>\n<div align=\"left\">\n<span style=\"font-family: Arial,Verdana,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-small;\">A thematic event on <em>New Opportunities for Active Citizenship through Multi-Level Governance &amp; Strategic Territorial Planning</em> took place in NUI Maynooth on Wednesday, 29<sup>th</sup> November 2006.  Against the backdrop of the governance and spatial planning issues facing both of these counties, the purpose of this thematic event was to raise and debate the issues surrounding:</span>\n<ul type=\"disc\">\n	<li><span style=\"font-family: Arial,Verdana,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-small;\">the role of community development and local government agencies in building good governance,</span></li>\n	<li><span style=\"font-family: Arial,Verdana,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-small;\">the various types and levels of participation that exist and the need to move towards real consultation and partnership, and</span></li>\n	<li><span style=\"font-family: Arial,Verdana,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-small;\">the benefits of higher levels of participation in the planning process for developers, local authorities and communities.</span></li>\n</ul>\n<span style=\"font-family: Arial,Verdana,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-small;\">This event also examined some of the new approaches emerging to address these issues (i.e. e-consultation, visual aids, etc.) and discuss their effectiveness in assisting stakeholders, particularly community groups, in overcoming the barriers they face in engaging with governance and the planning system.\n</span><span style=\"font-family: Arial,Verdana,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-small;\">A second event took place on Wednesday, 28<sup>th</sup> March 2007. This follow-on event was more practical in its focus. It examined the various approaches to citizen participation and, through case studies and action learning, considered how communities can best engage with decision-makers and the planning process so that their concerns and interests are more effectively represented and reflected in decision outcomes. This second thematic event, <em>Local Communities as Agents of Change: The Significance of Participation in Governance &amp; Planning</em>, was facilitated by Prof. Simin Davoudi and Professor Ali Madanipour of the University of Newcastle. Both are highly esteemed experts in the fields of governance, spatial planning, and social exclusion.\n</span>\n<p align=\"center\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial,Verdana,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-small;\"><img src=\"http://www.iclrd.ie/ff/images/new_opps1_nov06.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"586\" height=\"439\" border=\"0\" /></span></p>\n<p align=\"center\"><span style=\"font-size: x-small;\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial,Verdana,Helvetica,sans-serif;\"><em>Selection of delegates from </em></span></span><span style=\"font-family: Arial,Verdana,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-small;\"><em>Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown and Belfast</em></span></p>\n<p align=\"center\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial,Verdana,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-small;\"><img src=\"http://www.iclrd.ie/ff/images/new_opps2_nov06.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"584\" height=\"437\" border=\"0\" />\n</span></p>\n<p align=\"center\"><span style=\"font-size: x-small;\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial,Verdana,Helvetica,sans-serif;\"><em>Morning speakers: Q &amp; A Session</em></span></span></p>\n<p align=\"center\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial,Verdana,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-small;\"><img src=\"http://www.iclrd.ie/ff/images/new_opps3_nov06.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"584\" height=\"438\" border=\"0\" /></span></p>\n<p align=\"center\"><span style=\"font-size: x-small;\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial,Verdana,Helvetica,sans-serif;\"><em>Selection of delegates from </em></span></span><span style=\"font-family: Arial,Verdana,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-small;\"><em>Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown and Belfast</em></span></p>\n<p align=\"center\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial,Verdana,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-small;\"><img src=\"http://www.iclrd.ie/ff/images/new_opps4_nov06.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"590\" height=\"442\" border=\"0\" /></span></p>\n<p align=\"center\"><span style=\"font-size: x-small;\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial,Verdana,Helvetica,sans-serif;\"><em>Delegates and speakers</em></span></span></p>\n<span style=\"font-family: Arial,Verdana,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-small;\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Relevant Documents:\n</span></span><span style=\"font-family: Arial,Verdana,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-small;\">          Report of Thematic Event – <em><a href=\"http://www.iclrd.ie/ff/documents/New_opps_nov06/Report%20Thematic%20Workshop%2029Nov06%20-%20Final%20%28with%20photos%29.pdf\">New Opportunities for Active Citizenship\n</a></em></span><span style=\"font-family: Arial,Verdana,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-small;\">          <a href=\"http://www.iclrd.ie/ff/documents/New_opps_nov06/00%20-%20Programme%20-%20Active%20Citizenship%20Governance%20and%20Planning.pdf\">Workshop Programme</a>\n</span><span style=\"font-family: Arial,Verdana,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-small;\">          Session 1:         <a href=\"http://www.iclrd.ie/ff/documents/New_opps_nov06/01%20-%20Governance%20in%20Dun%20Laoghaire%20-%20BOKeeffe.pdf\">Governance &amp; Citizen Participation in Dún Laoghaire</a> – Dr. B.</span><span style=\"font-family: Arial,Verdana,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-small;\">O’Keeffe\n</span><span style=\"font-family: Arial,Verdana,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-small;\">                                  <a href=\"http://www.iclrd.ie/ff/documents/New_opps_nov06/02%20-%20Meath%20as%20Suburb%20Dublin%20-%20KStewart.pdf\">Meath – A Suburb of Dublin?</a> – K Stewart\n</span><span style=\"font-family: Arial,Verdana,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-small;\">          Session 2:         <a href=\"http://www.iclrd.ie/ff/documents/New_opps_nov06/03%20-%20Building%20Blocks%20Good%20Governance%20-%20JAllen.pdf\">Building Blocks to Good Governance</a> – J.

The National Spatial Strategy for the Republic of Ireland (NSS), published in 2002, similarly articulated a strong vision and long-term strategy for balanced regional development.\nThe publication of a joint consultation draft of a collaborative framework, explicitly linking the NSS and RDS in February 2011, represents a high-level commitment to a collaborative approach to the implementation of the two spatial strategies, with very significant implications, particularly for border regions.\nMonitoring and evaluating the progress of the NSS and RDS in achieving their objectives has become increasingly critical in recent years with the rising levels of uncertainty and volatility in relation to spatial development and socio-economic trends and a recognized need for a fundamental reappraisal of the role of planning systems North and South.\nWhile there have been some efforts to date to track and measure progress towards the tangible and intangible objectives of the two strategies, a substantive evidence-base is needed to monitor advances in a concrete and comparable way. ICLRD is undertaking a study to develop such a monitoring framework. Adopting an international perspective, ICLRD will recommend a common set of strategic progress indicators, with a special emphasis on the capacity of the NSS and RDS to inform decision-making and effectively guide the spatial distribution of development.','Monitoring Spatial Strategies on the Island of Ireland: The NSS and RDS','','draft','closed','closed','','monitoring-spatial-strategies-on-the-island-of-ireland-the-nss-and-rds','','','2011-11-08 09:38:37','2011-11-08 14:38:37','',0,'http://iclrd.org/web2/?p=2626',0,'post','',0),(2629,12,'2011-11-08 16:40:32','2011-11-08 21:40:32','','ICLRD Logo','','inherit','closed','closed','','iclrd-logo-5','','','2011-11-08 16:40:32','2011-11-08 21:40:32','',592,'http://dev.iclrd.org/iclrd2/wp-content/uploads/2005/03/ICLRD-Logo-1.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2631,12,'2011-11-08 16:41:46','2011-11-08 21:41:46','','ICLRD Logo','','inherit','closed','closed','','iclrd-logo-6','','','2011-11-08 16:41:46','2011-11-08 21:41:46','',589,'http://dev.iclrd.org/iclrd2/wp-content/uploads/2005/04/ICLRD-Logo-1.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2632,12,'2011-11-08 16:43:03','2011-11-08 21:43:03','','ICLRD Logo','','inherit','closed','closed','','iclrd-logo-7','','','2011-11-08 16:43:03','2011-11-08 21:43:03','',127,'http://dev.iclrd.org/iclrd2/wp-content/uploads/2007/11/ICLRD-Logo-1.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2633,10,'2011-11-08 16:44:08','2011-11-08 21:44:08','','staff-photo-2009','','inherit','closed','closed','','staff-photo-2009','','','2011-11-08 16:44:08','2011-11-08 21:44:08','',29,'http://dev.iclrd.org/iclrd2/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/staff-photo-2009-1.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2636,10,'2011-11-08 16:53:39','2011-11-08 21:53:39','','new-i2ud-logo','','inherit','closed','closed','','new-i2ud-logo','','','2011-11-08 16:53:39','2011-11-08 21:53:39','',0,'http://dev.iclrd.org/iclrd2/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/new-i2ud-logo-1.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2647,2,'2011-11-08 17:10:58','0000-00-00 00:00:00','test page\n[dtcmlibrary] ','test','','draft','closed','closed','','','','','2011-11-08 17:10:58','0000-00-00 00:00:00','',0,'http://iclrd.org/web2/?page_id=2647',0,'page','',0),(2657,10,'2011-11-08 17:45:30','2011-11-08 22:45:30','','iclrd-logo-final','','inherit','closed','closed','','iclrd-logo-final','','','2011-11-08 17:45:30','2011-11-08 22:45:30','',0,'http://dev.iclrd.org/iclrd2/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/iclrd-logo-final-1.png',0,'attachment','image/png',0),(2658,2,'2011-11-08 17:48:01','2011-11-08 22:48:01','http://dev.iclrd.org/iclrd2/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/iclrd-logo-final1-1.png','iclrd-logo-final1.png','','inherit','closed','closed','','iclrd-logo-final1-png','','','2011-11-08 17:48:01','2011-11-08 22:48:01','',0,'http://dev.iclrd.org/iclrd2/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/iclrd-logo-final1-1.png',0,'attachment','image/png',0),(2659,10,'2011-11-08 17:51:15','2011-11-08 22:51:15','http://dev.iclrd.org/iclrd2/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/iclrd-logo-final2-1.png','iclrd-logo-final2.png','','inherit','closed','closed','','iclrd-logo-final2-png','','','2011-11-08 17:51:15','2011-11-08 22:51:15','',0,'http://dev.iclrd.org/iclrd2/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/iclrd-logo-final2-1.png',0,'attachment','image/png',0),(2660,10,'2011-11-08 17:51:45','2011-11-08 22:51:45','http://dev.iclrd.org/iclrd2/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/iclrd-logo-final3-1.png','iclrd-logo-final3.png','','inherit','closed','closed','','iclrd-logo-final3-png','','','2011-11-08 17:51:45','2011-11-08 22:51:45','',2897,'http://dev.iclrd.org/iclrd2/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/iclrd-logo-final3-1.png',0,'attachment','image/png',0),(2680,10,'2011-11-07 22:44:23','2011-11-08 03:44:23','Co-operation Ireland in association with the International Centre for Local and Regional Development and Queen’s University, Belfast hosted a seminar entitled, Planning and Local Government on the Island of Ireland on Friday 30 September, 2011 in Dundalk.\nThe seminar was very well attended with delegates travelling from across Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland. The emphasis throughout the day was on the potential for greater collaboration and co-operation for spatial strategies on the island, particularly in light of Jean Peyrony’s presentation, which gave a number of European examples of governance and planning in cross border regions. There was also an emphasis on sharing experiences throughout the day with contributions from Councillors both North and South.

The seminar focused on the development of indicators and monitoring for the National Spatial Strategy and Regional Planning Guidelines. In particular, the seminar provided an opportunity to learn from international experience as well as to review recent and current approaches to indicators and monitoring in Ireland. The seminar highlighted the importance of territorial monitoring in order to support evidence-informed decision-making, to ensure national and regional level strategic oversight and to demonstrate the ‘added value’ of an integrated spatial approach to development.\nThe final programme for the day is available to download <a href=\"http://espon-ireland.ie/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/ESPON-Seminar-PROGRAMME1.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>here</strong></a>\nThe slides of each presentation are available for download:\n<ul>\n	<li><a href=\"http://www.airo.ie/system/files/Cormac_Walsh_NIRSA_Introduction.pdf\">Introduction</a> - Dr. Cormac Walsh, National Institute for Regional and Spatial Analysis</li>\n	<li><a href=\"http://www.airo.ie/system/files/McKeown_DECLG_national%20perspective.pdf\">National Policy Context and National Spatial Strategy Monitoring</a> - Gabrielle McKeown</li>\n	<li><a href=\"http://www.airo.ie/system/files/Kai_Boehme_Europe.pdf\">European Approaches to Indicator Development and Territorial Monitoring under the ESPON Programme</a> - Dr. Kai Böhme, Spatial Foresight</li>\n	<li><a href=\"http://www.airo.ie/system/files/Cecilia_Wong_England.pdf\">Measuring Spatial Planning Outcomes: The UK Experience</a> - Prof. Cecilia Wong, University of Manchester</li>\n	<li><a href=\"http://www.airo.ie/system/files/Colm%20McCoy_RPGs.pdf\">Spatial Indicators for the Regional Planning Guidelines</a> - Colm McCoy, Dublin and Mid-East Regional Authorities</li>\n	<li><a href=\"http://www.airo.ie/system/files/O%20Donoghue_BMW_Gateway%20Development%20Index.pdf\">The Gateway Development Index: Quality of Life and Balanced Regional Development</a> - Adrian O’ Donoghue, Border Midland West Regional Assembly</li>\n	<li><a href=\"http://www.airo.ie/system/files/David%20Evers%20NL%20Territorial%20Impact%20Assessment.pdf\">Territorial Impact Assessment: The Dutch Approach</a> - Dr. David Evers, Dutch Environmental Assessment Agency, Dutch ESPON Contact Point</li>\n</ul>\nA report on the day compiled by Cian O’ Callaghan and Cormac Walsh is available to download <a href=\"http://espon-ireland.ie/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/ESPON-Seminar-Dublin-Report-September-20111.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>ESPON Seminar Dublin Report September 2011</strong></a>','ESPON Ireland Seminar','','publish','closed','closed','','espon-ireland-seminar','','','2011-11-07 14:34:40','2011-11-07 19:34:40','',0,'http://iclrd.org/?p=2720',0,'post','',0),(2729,12,'2008-01-09 15:44:22','2008-01-09 20:44:22','<table style=\"text-align: left;

Speakers and contributors considered the state of housing development and the potential of land banking across the island of Ireland with respect to housing need, unfinished estates, the property market, the planning system and both the Housing and Sustainable Communities Agency (HSCA) and the National Asset Management Agency (NAMA). It examined international experiences of asset disposal and public land development, and explored possibilities and opportunities in the island of Ireland context. It debated the role of local authorities, HSCA, NAMA, housing associations, private developers and other actors in addressing present issues and creating a more sustainable system of development that serves public and private interests. Attended by over 30 people, this event created a space in which key stakeholder agencies were provided with the opportunity to share and learn from each other.\nThe presentations are available for download here:\n<ul>\n	<li><strong><a href=\"http://www.airo.ie/system/files/BGleeson_RoundtableEvent_PublicLandDevelopmentAustralia_28Apr11.pdf\">Public Land Development: Some lessons from Australia</a></strong> - Prof. Brendan Gleeson, Deputy Director, NIRSA, NUI Maynooth &amp; Formerly, Director – Urban Research Program, Griffith University, Brisbane</li>\n	<li><strong><a href=\"http://www.airo.ie/system/files/KMaguire_RoundtableEvent_SocialHousingPublicLand_28Apr11.pdf\">Local Communities taking Control of Under-utilised Government Land in the U.S.: Local planning processes to redevelop land in coordination with community needs</a></strong> - Kevin Maguire, Social Housing Developer &amp; Associate, Institute for International Urban Development, Cambridge, Mass.</li>\n	<li><strong><a href=\"http://www.airo.ie/system/files/JO%27Connor_RoundtableEvent_UnfinishedEstatesLandBanking_28Apr11.pdf\">Unfinished Estates and Landbanks: Placing collaborative approaches at the centre of any solution</a></strong> - John O’Connor, Chief Executive, Housing and Sustainable Communities Agency</li>\n	<li><strong><a href=\"http://www.airo.ie/system/files/ACharles_RoundtableEvent_PotentialofLandbanking_28Apr11.pdf\">The Potential of Landbanking in Ireland: The role of NAMA and Local Authorities</a></strong> - Alice Charles, Associate Director, Colin Buchanan</li>\n	<li><strong><a href=\"http://www.airo.ie/system/files/KMcKillion%2526GClayton_RoundtableEvent_HousingSurplusHousingNeed_28Apr11.pdf\">Housing Surplus, Housing Need and the Planning Process: A social housing perspective</a></strong> - Ms. Kathleen McKillion, Head of Development &amp; Mr. Gene Clayton, President, Irish Council for Social Housing</li>\n</ul>','Workshop with NIRSA and Border Regional Authority -- Land Banking and Housing Development: The (New) Role of the Planning System','','publish','closed','closed','','workshop-with-nirsa-and-border-regional-authority-land-banking-and-housing-development-the-new-role-of-the-planning-system','','','2011-04-29 11:23:15','2011-04-29 16:23:15','',0,'http://iclrd.org/?p=2906',0,'post','',0),(2909,10,'2011-12-23 16:01:52','2011-12-23 21:01:52','','ICLRD Conference - Draft Final Program 23Dec11','','inherit','closed','closed','','iclrd-conference-draft-final-program-23dec11','','','2011-12-23 16:01:52','2011-12-23 21:01:52','',0,'http://dev.iclrd.org/iclrd2/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/ICLRD-Conference-Draft-Final-Program-23Dec11-1.pdf',0,'attachment','application/pdf',0),(2912,10,'2012-01-04 09:43:33','0000-00-00 00:00:00','','Executive Board','','draft','closed','closed','','','','','2012-01-04 09:43:33','0000-00-00 00:00:00','',0,'http://iclrd.org/?p=2912',0,'post','',0),(2913,10,'2012-01-04 12:01:11','2012-01-04 17:01:11','ICLRD is run by an Executive Board comprised of the directors of its three <a href=\"http://iclrd.org/about/partners/\">partner organizations</a> and an external Chair.\n<strong>Caitriona Mullan</strong>\nICLRD Chair\nEmail: <a href=\"mailto:caitriona73@gmail.com\" target=\"_blank\">caitriona73@gmail.com</a>\n<strong>Dr. Patricia O\'Hara</strong>\nICLRD Vice-Chair\nEmail:&nbsp;<a href=\"mailto:caitriona73@gmail.com\" target=\"_blank\">poharaca@gmail.com</a>\n<strong><a href=\"https://www.nuim.ie/people/mark-boyle\" target=\"_blank\">Professor Mark Boyle</a></strong>\nDirector of NIRSA\nTel. + 353 (0) 1 708 3756\nEmail: <a href=\"mailto:mark.g.boyle@nuim.ie\" target=\"_blank\">mark.g.boyle@nuim.ie</a>\n<strong>Dr. Neale Blair\n</strong>Executive Director representing Ulster University\n<strong>Mr. John Driscoll\n</strong>Executive Director representing Institute for International Urban Development, Cambridge, Mass.\n<strong>Mr. Jack Keyes\n</strong>Non-Executive Director – Independent\n<strong>Mr. Danny McSorley\n</strong>Non-Executive Director – Independent','Executive Board','','trash','closed','closed','','executive-board-2__trashed','','','2020-09-28 13:01:44','2020-09-28 13:01:44','',4482,'http://iclrd.org/?page_id=2913',0,'page','',0),(2919,10,'2012-01-04 11:58:47','2012-01-04 16:58:47','Dr. Tim O’Connor<strong> </strong>runs his own business providing strategic advice and support to Irish and international companies.

The conference was organised as part of our CroSPlaN Initiative that is funded by the Special EU Programmes Body under the INTERREG IVA Programme. The theme of this two-day event was <em>Planning for a New Future: Can Planning and Cross-Border Cooperation Deliver Change in Ireland and Europe? </em>Speaker slides and audio files are available for download <a href=\"#files\">below</a> and the Post Conference Report is available <a href=\"http://dev.iclrd.org/iclrd2/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/ICLRD_Conference_2012-1.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">here</a>.\nThe island of Ireland faces many challenges due to the severe downturn in the world economy, stagnant development and the legacy of over a decade of sometimes ill-planned development. These challenges have knock-on implications for cross-border cooperation, sustainable development and engaging local authorities, businesses and residents in shaping their communities. The Seventh Annual ICLRD Conference considered models of collaboration across borders and between local government and other key local agencies.  Both presenters and delegates alike were asked to identify workable new approaches to planning and the delivery of services.  The conference was organised around three main sessions:\n<ul>\n	<li><em><a href=\"#S1\">The Collaborative Framework:</a></em> Cross-Border Regionalism in Action – the role of new regionalism in enhancing cooperation within functional regions.</li>\n	<li><em><a href=\"#S2\">Leadership through Planning:</a></em> Demonstrating Leadership in Achieving the ‘Common Good’ – debating the role of communities, the private sector, and planners in learning from the past and planning a new future.</li>\n	<li><em><a href=\"#S3\">Planning the Future:</a></em> Rethinking the Role of Planning, Governance and Community – bringing together delegates and speakers to consider the role and future of planning and local and regional development and the opportunities and implications of emerging EU agendas on policy and practice.</li>\n</ul>\n<div><a class=\"shutterset_\" href=\"http://iclrd.org/wp-content/gallery/7th-annual-iclrd-conference/img_1559.jpg\"><img class=\"ngg-singlepic ngg-none alignleft\" style=\"border-style: initial;

Spatial Planning, Cross-Border Cooperation and River Basin Management</a></strong></em>.\n\nPublished in September 2011, this report recognises that environmental assets do not adhere to man-made boundaries and considers the challenges and opportunities in integrating environmental management and development strategies at national, regional and local-policy level. It builds on the recognition that the environment is increasingly lying at the heart of European thinking; with the need to protect and conserve the environment referenced in numerous Directives, not least the Water Framework Directive (WFD). For cross-border communities, this necessitates a commitment to cross-sectoral, cross-departmental and inter-jurisdictional collaboration as many of these assets transcend the Irish border.\nThe cross-border dimension of managing water resources and shared river basins brings up interesting challenges for both jurisdictions on the island of Ireland. Eight river basin districts were jointly established following a joint consultation process in 2003; with four located in the Republic of Ireland, one in Northern Ireland and three being cross-border. And as the resulting plans move into their implementation phase, it is evident that environmental considerations play an increasingly critical and decisive role in spatial planning. As such, the challenges involved in coordinating river basin management and spatial planning policy objectives are not only technical but also political.\nBuilding on the two international case studies – <a href=\"http://dev.iclrd.org/iclrd2/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/Elbe-River-Basin-Final-Report-1.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">the Berlin-Brandenburg and Elbe River Basin in Germany</a> and the <a href=\"http://dev.iclrd.org/iclrd2/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/ConnecticutRiverBasin-WaterQualityLandUsePlanning-1.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Connecticut River Basin in Massachusetts</a> – the report illustrates that good river basin management practices have moved towards engagement and negotiation, rather than relying solely on compliance measures or regulatory enforcement. This creates the possibility for proactive management, with an emphasis on protecting and enhancing the shared asset of the river basin. Critically, they highlight that it is the sub-regional management of the river basin itself that is key to bringing together official and civic, business and environmental leadership in a meaningful way. This is especially the case when spatial planning decisions are made at the ‘local level’.\nThe report puts forward a number of strategic options for the effective implementation of river basin plans on a cross-border basis – including integration between spatial development and water management plans. Furthermore, in the case of the Republic of Ireland where the implementation phase is under review, it proposes a number of scenarios which take due cognisance of the need for an evidence-based approach, ongoing inter-jurisdictional cooperation and jointly agreed monitoring systems, and political and public acceptance for river basin management and associated water quality protection measures – all of which requires adequate resourcing!.\n<strong><a href=\"http://dev.iclrd.org/iclrd2/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/Responding-to-the-Environmental-Challenge-ICLRD-Report-Sept11-1.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Download the report.&nbsp;</a></strong>','Responding to the Environmental Challenge?

It builds on the recognition that the environment is increasingly lying at the heart of European thinking; with the need to protect and conserve the environment referenced in numerous Directives, not least the Water Framework Directive (WFD).&nbsp; For cross-border communities, this necessitates a commitment to cross-sectoral, cross-departmental and inter-jurisdictional collaboration as many of these assets transcend the Irish border.<br><strong><a href=\"http://dev.iclrd.org/iclrd2/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/ConnecticutRiverBasin-WaterQualityLandUsePlanning-1.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Download the report</a></strong></p>','The Connecticut River Basin: Integrating Water Quality Improvements with Regional Land Use Plans','','publish','closed','closed','','the-connecticut-river-basin-integrating-water-quality-improvements-with-regional-land-use-plans-2','','','2020-10-12 23:22:57','2020-10-12 23:22:57','',0,'http://iclrd.org/?p=3209',0,'post','',0),(3227,10,'2012-03-15 12:05:26','2012-03-15 17:05:26','','ConnecticutRiverBasin-cover2','','inherit','closed','closed','','connecticutriverbasin-cover2','','','2012-03-15 12:05:26','2012-03-15 17:05:26','',0,'http://dev.iclrd.org/iclrd2/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/ConnecticutRiverBasin-cover2-1.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(3236,13,'2012-04-06 11:39:31','2012-04-06 16:39:31','','ICLRD_Conference_2012','','inherit','closed','closed','','iclrd_conference_2012','','','2012-04-06 11:39:31','2012-04-06 16:39:31','',0,'http://dev.iclrd.org/iclrd2/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/ICLRD_Conference_2012-1.pdf',0,'attachment','application/pdf',0),(3239,10,'2012-04-09 12:12:38','2012-04-09 17:12:38','','Post-conference-report2012-cover','','inherit','closed','closed','','post-conference-report2012-cover','','','2012-04-09 12:12:38','2012-04-09 17:12:38','',3241,'http://dev.iclrd.org/iclrd2/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/Post-conference-report2012-cover-1.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(3241,10,'2012-04-09 12:27:07','2012-04-09 17:27:07','<table style=\"text-align: left;

This report focuses on the application of data for the purpose of informing policy decisions, in particular with respect to the policy objectives and strategic ambitions of the National Spatial Strategy&nbsp;for the Republic of Ireland&nbsp;(NSS) and the Regional Development Strategy for Northern Ireland (RDS). It draws on international experience at the European level and elsewhere in the UK.\nLaunched in 2001, the RDS set out an ambitious long-term strategic policy framework, with the aim of providing an explicit spatial dimension to the investment plans and sectoral policies of the Northern Ireland Executive. The NSS, published in 2002, similarly articulated a strong vision and long-term strategy for balanced regional development.&nbsp;Monitoring and evaluating the progress of the NSS and RDS in achieving their objectives has become increasingly critical in recent years with the rising levels of uncertainty and volatility in relation to spatial development and socio-economic trends and a recognized need for a fundamental reappraisal of the role of planning systems North and South. The development, application and interpretation of indicators is critical to this process as set out in the February&nbsp;2011 consultation document&nbsp;<a href=\"http://dev.iclrd.org/iclrd2/2006/11/08/the-spatial-strategies-on-the-island-of-ireland-framework-for-collaboration/\"><em>Spatial Strategies on the Island of Ireland Framework for Collaboration</em></a>.\nWhile there have been some efforts to date to track and measure progress towards the tangible and intangible objectives of the two strategies, a framework is needed to monitor advances in a concrete and comparable way. This new report responds to the need for a joined-up approach to evidence-based planning given the emergence of multiple spatial planning initiatives within the Irish cross-border region.&nbsp;International studies and experience indicate the importance of evidence-informed approaches to decision making but also the dangers of relying on statistical or quantitative information without taking due account of the underlying processes the data represents. As documented in previous ICLRD publications on evidence-based planning, the challenge of having too much data can lead to being ‘data rich but insight poor’. This newest ICLRD study will provide a valuable source of expert advice for policy-makers and practitioners at national and regional government levels.\nDownload the report&nbsp;<a href=\"http://dev.iclrd.org/iclrd2/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/Spatial-Monitoring-Framework-for-the-island-of-Ireland-1.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here</a>.\n&nbsp;\n&nbsp;\n&nbsp;\n&nbsp;','Towards a Spatial Monitoring Framework for the Island of Ireland: a Scoping Study','This report focuses on the application of data for the purpose of informing policy decisions, in particular with respect to the policy objectives and strategic ambitions of the NSS and the RDS.','publish','closed','closed','','spatial-monitoring','','','2020-10-12 09:15:15','2020-10-12 09:15:15','',0,'http://iclrd.org/?p=3279',0,'post','',0),(3280,10,'2012-05-01 09:03:33','2012-05-01 14:03:33','','Spatial-Monitoring-Framework-for-the-island-of-Ireland-cover2','','inherit','closed','closed','','spatial-monitoring-framework-for-the-island-of-ireland-cover2-2','','','2012-05-01 09:03:33','2012-05-01 14:03:33','',3279,'http://dev.iclrd.org/iclrd2/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/Spatial-Monitoring-Framework-for-the-island-of-Ireland-cover2-1.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(3309,10,'2012-06-13 13:32:10','2012-06-13 18:32:10','','Shared-Services-Across-Local-Government','','inherit','closed','closed','','shared-services-across-local-government','','','2012-06-13 13:32:10','2012-06-13 18:32:10','',0,'http://dev.iclrd.org/iclrd2/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Shared-Services-Across-Local-Government-1.pdf',0,'attachment','application/pdf',0),(3311,10,'2012-06-18 15:12:11','2012-06-18 20:12:11','','Shared Services Briefing Report Final-sm','','inherit','closed','closed','','shared-services-briefing-report-final-sm','','','2012-06-18 15:12:11','2012-06-18 20:12:11','',0,'http://dev.iclrd.org/iclrd2/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Shared-Services-Briefing-Report-Final-sm-1.pdf',0,'attachment','application/pdf',0),(3312,10,'2012-06-18 15:12:19','2012-06-18 20:12:19','','shared-services-brief-COVER-front','','inherit','closed','closed','','shared-services-brief-cover-front','','','2012-06-18 15:12:19','2012-06-18 20:12:19','',3313,'http://dev.iclrd.org/iclrd2/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/shared-services-brief-COVER-front-1.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(3313,10,'2012-06-18 15:37:19','2012-06-18 20:37:19','<table style=\"text-align: left; width: 575px; height: 337px;\" border=\"2\" width=\"575\" cellspacing=\"2\" cellpadding=\"2\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"vertical-align: top;\" rowspan=\"5\"><a href=\"http://dev.iclrd.org/iclrd2/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Shared-Services-Briefing-Report-Final-sm-1.pdf\"><img class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-3312\" title=\"shared-services-brief-COVER-front\" src=\"http://dev.iclrd.org/iclrd2/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/shared-services-brief-COVER-front-1-212x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"212\" height=\"300\"></a></td>\n<td><span style=\"color: #808080;\"><em><strong>Title:</strong></em></span>&nbsp;Briefing Report on Shared Services: Propositions for Local Government Collaboration</td>\n</tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"color: #808080;\"><em><strong> Publication Date: </strong></em></span>March 2012</td>\n</tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"color: #888888;\"><em><strong>Team</strong></em>: </span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Caroline Creamer, John Driscoll</span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\n</span></td>\n</tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"color: #808080;\"><strong><em>Funding: </em></strong></span>CroSPlaN Initiative, an INTERREG IVA funded-project which is being administered by the SEUPB.</td>\n</tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"color: #888888;\"><strong><em>Summary: </em></strong></span>This briefing report, a companion paper to <a href=\"http://iclrd.org/2012/04/16/shared-services-across-local-government-sharing-international-experiences/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Shared Services Across Local Government – Sharing International Experiences</a>, synthesizes ICLRD research to date on this topic as well as presentations by experts in ICLRD executive training programmes.

The Challenge of Cooperation in Healthcare Provision’ on Wednesday 13<sup>th</sup> of June 2012, at the Royal Irish Academy in Dublin. The seminar was very well attended, with over 60 healthcare policy-makers and professionals from Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland.\nThe seminar was chaired by Dr Maurice Hayes and addressed questions around an all-island strategy on health and the desirability of deepening cross-border healthcare co-operation to increase access to specialist services and facilities. The debate focused on local provision of services and issues around funding and the future of existing services as illustrated by Tom Daly and Bernie McCrory’s (Co-operation and Working Together – CAWT) presentation. Dr. Ronan Foley (NUIM) and Vanya Sargent (Crowe Horwath) underlined the importance of evidence-base for ensuring a coherent and equitable provision of services.  Dr. Ambrose McLoughlin, Secretary General of the Department of Health, assured maintenance of service provision and emphasised the good relations that already exist in terms of cross-border collaboration in the coordination and delivery of healthcare services.\nThe list of speakers that contributed to the seminar are listed below, and their presentations are available for download:\nDr. Ronan Foley, NUI Maynooth <a href=\"http://dev.iclrd.org/iclrd2/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Ronan_Foley_Crossborder_Health_Services_Mobility-1.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">Click here to download</a>\nTom Daly and Bernie McCrory, Co-operation and Working Together (CAWT) Click here to download presentation\nDr. Ambrose McLoughlin, Secretary General of the Department of Health\nVanya Sargent, Crowe Horwath <a href=\"http://dev.iclrd.org/iclrd2/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Vanya_Sargent_IBIS_Presentation-1.pdf\">Click here to download</a>\n&nbsp;\n&nbsp;\n&nbsp;','Seminar with the Institute for British-Irish Studies','','publish','closed','closed','','seminar-with-the-institute-for-british-irish-studies','','','2012-06-22 13:14:23','2012-06-22 18:14:23','',0,'http://iclrd.org/?p=3333',0,'post','',0),(3334,11,'2012-06-22 12:56:44','2012-06-22 17:56:44','','Pre-Session_10S','','inherit','closed','closed','','pre-session_10s','','','2012-06-22 12:56:44','2012-06-22 17:56:44','',3333,'http://dev.iclrd.org/iclrd2/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Pre-Session_10S-1.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(3335,11,'2012-06-22 12:56:57','2012-06-22 17:56:57','','Click here to download','','inherit','closed','closed','','ronan_foley_crossborder_health_services_mobility','','','2012-06-22 12:56:57','2012-06-22 17:56:57','',3333,'http://dev.iclrd.org/iclrd2/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Ronan_Foley_Crossborder_Health_Services_Mobility-1.pdf',0,'attachment','application/pdf',0),(3336,11,'2012-06-22 12:57:11','2012-06-22 17:57:11','','Click here to download','','inherit','closed','closed','','vanya_sargent_ibis_presentation','','','2012-06-22 12:57:11','2012-06-22 17:57:11','',3333,'http://dev.iclrd.org/iclrd2/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Vanya_Sargent_IBIS_Presentation-1.pdf',0,'attachment','application/pdf',0),(3346,10,'2012-07-25 10:52:55','2012-07-25 15:52:55','An ESPON funded research programme, KITCASP, is exploring the use of territorial data to develop and monitor national spatial strategies and other territorial development policies. The National Institute for Regional and Spatial Analysis (NIRSA) is the lead institution with four other international partners from Iceland, Latvia, Scotland and Spain.\nThis ESPON-funded initiative is drawing on findings and recommendations from the 2012 ICLRD scoping study<strong> <a href=\"http://iclrd.org/2012/05/01/towards-a-spatial-monitoring-framework-for-the-island-of-ireland-a-scoping-study/\" target=\"_blank\">Towards a Spatial Monitoring Framework for the Island of Ireland</a></strong> funded through ICLRD’s CroSPlaN Initiative, an INTERREG IVA funded-project administered by the SEUPB.\nThe aims of the KITCASP research are to:\n<ul>\n	<li>Support evidence-based, integrated policy-making for territorial development;</li>\n	<li>Identify and disseminate good practice in the use of data, indicators and indices to inform the preparation of national strategies for territorial development;</li>\n	<li>Examine how ESPON findings can contribute to that process; and</li>\n	<li>Explore the potential for identifying a core set of key indicators to address the development objectives of territorial cohesion, economic competitiveness and sustainable development.</li>\n</ul>\nThe central focus of this project is the identification of the most suitable core set of key spatial planning indicators of significant practical use to policy-makers and practitioners at national and sub-national levels in the preparation of territorial development strategies. Indicators proposed through the KITCASP can support all Ireland planning and monitoring.\nThe research is being undertaken by Dr. Ainhoa González, researcher at ICLRD and NIRSA, and Gavin Daly, researcher at NIRSA and ESPON contact person for Ireland.

The Cross-Border Spatial Planning and Training Network (CroSPlaN), managed by the International Centre for Local and Regional Development,  has secured a second round of funding to support new initiatives to strengthen cooperation among local councils in the border region.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The programme is funded under the EU INTERREG IVA programme managed by the Special EU Programmes body and will be rolled out as part of the wider Ireland-Northern Ireland Cross-Border Cooperation Observatory (INICCO II) Programme managed by the Centre for Cross Border Studies and a number of key agencies from across the island of Ireland. The INICCO II Programme – including CroSPlaN II – will be officially launched on the 9<sup>th</sup> of April in the Stormont Hotel, Belfast by Dr Malcolm McKibbin, Head of the Northern Ireland Civil Service and the Permanent Secretary of OFMDFM.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">First established in 2009, the now-named CroSPlaN II is a unique partnership that brings together researchers, planners, councilors and officials in Northern Ireland and the Southern Border Region. Under this funding CroSPlaN II will deliver on three initiatives in 2013 and 2014:</p>\n<ol>\n	<li>The role of shared services in promoting greater cooperation among local authorities in the Irish Border region;</li>\n	<li>An executive training and animation programme that supports innovative approaches to inter-jurisdictional cooperation; and</li>\n	<li>Developing and using common data to develop shared perspectives on common challenges and opportunities.</li>\n</ol>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The CroSPlaN II programme will support the emerging and ongoing local / regional government and planning reforms across the island of Ireland – and support public bodies and cross-border networks through its executive training programmes, especially as they relate to good governance, spatial planning and sustainable development, and enhanced cross-border cooperation. The programme will also provide analytical mapping tools that bring together compatible census information to support spatial planning on a cross-border and all-island basis and promote the more efficient delivery of public services from a citizen-centric perspective. CroSPlaN II will also make available good practices in spatial planning and local and regional development. It will also raise the awareness of the important linkages between EU and central government territorial policies with a particular focus on building territorial cooperation, which will be crucial for future EU funding programmes.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">These initiatives will be further supported by annual conferences held in association with the Centre for Cross Border Studies, and the continued publication of the ICLRD’s annual journal, <em>Borderlands</em>: <em>The Journal of Spatial Planning in Ireland.</em></p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The <strong>International Centre for Local and Regional Development (ICLRD)</strong>, based in Armagh, is a North-South-US partnership which aims to explore and expand the contribution that planning and the development of the physical, social and economic infrastructures can make to improve the lives of people in both jurisdictions.  The <strong>Centre for Cross Border Studies</strong>, also based in Armagh, researches and develops cooperation across the Irish border in education and training, health, ICT, the economy, public administration and other practical areas.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align:

In doing this it will build on the work of the three existing local authority-based cross-border networks: East Border Region (EBR), Irish Central Border Area Network (ICBAN) and the North West Region Cross Border Group (NWRCBG).</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The project will aim to stimulate a form of cross-border economic development that is uniquely adapted to the border region – and to do this in particular by building on the experiences of successful border region firms, and by focusing on the capacity of local authorities in both jurisdictions to promote and lead this process.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The project promoters have this month commissioned five ‘scoping studies’ into aspects of this proposed Border Development Zone: one on the overall strategy and structure that might be adopted, and four on key potential development sectors in the region: SME enterprise with export potential, tourism and recreation, agriculture and food  processing, and low carbon initiatives and renewable energy.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A  project steering group – drawn from CCBS , InterTradeIreland, IBEC-CBI Joint Business Council,  the cross-border networks, local authorities, business leaders  and the ICLRD – will be chaired by Padraic White, former head of IDA Ireland and chair of Louth Economic Forum.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The five studies will be presented to an international conference, jointly hosted by the ICLRD and the Centre for Cross Border Studies, at an Irish border region venue in early 2014. Five ‘implementation groups’ coming out of this conference will plan an application to the 2014-2020 EU INTERREG V programme for funding to begin to carry out a ‘Towards a Border Development Zone’ strategy as developed through this project.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">For further information on this initiative, see the Centre for Cross Border Studies website, <a

Regional Development (ICLRD) welcomes the recent publication of <strong>‘Framework for Co-operation: Spatial Strategies of Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland’</strong>. This innovative approach to strategic development is the first such spatial planning framework on the island of Ireland, and seeks to influence strategic issues around economic competitiveness, place making, environmental quality, and evidence-based decision making.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">As elsewhere in Europe, economic, social and environmental activities do not stop at the Irish border but rather move north and south between the two jurisdictions and east and west to England, Scotland and Wales. This cooperation across borders has been recognised by initiatives funded by the European Union, including the INTERREG and PEACE programmes. EU policy is also now geared towards the concept of territorial cohesion across Europe, with the aim of balanced distribution of human activities across the Union.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">On the island of Ireland the National Spatial Strategy (NSS) for the Republic of Ireland and the Regional Development Strategy (RDS) 2035 for Northern Ireland, as a basis for strategic investment decision-making, have a key role in promoting territorial cohesion. Spatial planning is strategic, visionary, and inclusive by nature and whilst non-statutory, it is anticipated that the Framework for Co-operation will help to position the island of Ireland to make the most of opportunities to compete in the global economy. This will require involvement from both the top-down and bottom-up, as recommended through several ICLRD research reports and adopted within the Framework for Co-operation.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Remarking on the launch of the Framework for Co-operation this week, John Driscoll, ICLRD Director, commented that:</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em>\"ICLRD has been working with local and central government, the community sector and businesses across the island of Ireland for 10 years, nurturing and supporting good governance in the pursuit of mutual economic and social progress.</em></p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em>The Framework for Co-operation will be particularly helpful in light of new local government reform policies and the bringing together of local authorities, cross-border bodies and the regional networks in the Irish Border Region who share common challenges and opportunities\".</em></p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Caroline Creamer, ICLRD Deputy Director, added:<em></em></p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em>“In the 2006 report for InterTradeIreland, prepared by ICLRD on how spatial strategies could better work together, an emphasis was placed on harnessing and facilitating existing structures by providing new working arrangements that energise stakeholders in the business and planning sectors. This spirit has been captured in the Framework for Co-operation that we have today.”</em></p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em>We look forward to continuing this relationship, particularly with the Department of Regional Development in Belfast, and the Department of Environment, Community and Local Government in Dublin and the numerous stakeholders involved in delivering the Framework.”</em></p>\nMore information and digital copies of the Framework are available on the <a href=\"http://www.environ.ie/en/DevelopmentHousing/PlanningDevelopment/Planning/TopicalIssues/\">Department of Environment, Community, and Local Government</a> website and the <a href=\"http://www.drdni.gov.uk/index/rds2035.htm\">Department of Regional Development</a> website.\n<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Notes for Editors:</span>\n<ol>\n	<li>The <a href=\"http://iclrd.org/about/\">International Centre for Local and Regional Development</a> (ICLRD) is a North-South-US partnership programme created to explore and expand the contribution that planning and the development of physical, social and economic infrastructures can make to improving the lives of people in both Irish jurisdictions – particularly those in divided and disadvantaged areas – and thus to peace-building and reconciliation on the island.</li>\n	<li>The ICLRD provides independent research, planning analysis and a range of international experience to assist policy makers, practitioners, local officials and community groups in promoting good local and regional planning as part of the process of conflict resolution and in achieving greater social and economic cohesion.</li>\n	<li>For further information, please contact Dr. Neale Blair, ICLRD Assistant Director and Senior Lecturer in Planning, School of the Built Environment, University of Ulster, n.blair@ulster.ac.uk.</li>\n</ol>','ICLRD Welcomes First Framework for Co-operation in Spatial Planning','','publish','closed','closed','','iclrd-welcomes-first-framework-for-co-operation-in-spatial-planning','','','2013-10-22 09:33:20','2013-10-22 14:33:20','',0,'http://iclrd.org/?p=3655',0,'post','',0),(3663,11,'2013-10-30 09:36:21','2013-10-30 14:36:21','<table style=\"text-align: left; width: 575px; height: 337px;\" border=\"2\" width=\"575\" cellspacing=\"2\" cellpadding=\"2\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"vertical-align: top;\" rowspan=\"4\" width=\"150px\"><a href=\"http://dev.iclrd.org/iclrd2/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/Paper-11-Implementation_River_Basin_Management_Plans-Dec12-1.pdf\"><img class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-2241\" title=\"briefing-papers-icon\" src=\"http://dev.iclrd.org/iclrd2/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/briefing-papers-icon-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"175\" height=\"147\"></a></td>\n<td><span style=\"color: #808080;\"><em><strong>Title:</strong></em></span> Briefing Paper No.12: Small Island: Big Marine Challenges Ahead for the Blue Economy</td>\n</tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"color: #808080;\"><em><strong>Publication Date: </strong></em><span style=\"color: #000000;\">September 2013</span></span></td>\n</tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"color: #888888;\"><em><strong>Authors: </strong></em></span>Dr. Heather Ritchie</td>\n</tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #888888;\"><strong><em>Summary:</em></strong></span> This paper investigates the issues arising for the island of Ireland resulting from two different Marine Spatial Planning jurisdictions and regulatory traditions.

Firms tend to shun border regions and infrastructural links are not developed, resulting in unbalanced economic growth. Taking an all-island approach will help deliver more balanced regional development and address the negative effects of the border” (p.96).</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The <strong>Towards a Border Development Zone </strong>(BDZ) action research project explores the potential of a joint economic development approach across the whole Irish and Northern Irish cross-border region. The idea for the Border Development Zone originated in a meeting of policy makers (including representatives of InterTradeIreland, Invest NI, Forfás, Enterprise Ireland and IBEC) in Newry in September 2011 to discuss the emerging findings of the Bradley &amp;

Challenges stem from having separate jurisdictions in the North and South of Ireland; each jurisdiction has separate governance regimes with several different government departments controlling functions such as planning and regulation. Marine Spatial Planning (MSP) is set to play a major part in the European Union’s ‘blue economy’. With the island of Ireland’s prime geographical position, and with innovations in wind, water and wave and even algae technologies, MSP will be a vital process to enable renewable technologies to shape the future energy mix and to allow the island to emerge as a renewable energy exporter.

Attended by 110 delegates and speakers, the conference is part-financed by the European Union’s INTERREG IVA programme managed by the <a href=\"http://www.seupb.eu/\" target=\"_blank\">Special EU Programmes Body</a>. The theme of this two-day event was <em>Cross Border Economic Development and the Border Development Zone Concept. </em>Speaker slides and audio files are available for download <a href=\"#files\">below</a>.\nWhile there is no longer an all-island Common Chapter, the Irish Government’s 2007-2013 National Development Plan (NDP) notes that the border “causes natural markets to fragment along territorial lines, reducing economic interaction and the opportunity to develop economies of scale and strong indigenous industries is lost. Firms tend to shun border regions and infrastructural links are not developed, resulting in unbalanced economic growth. Taking an all-island approach will help deliver more balanced regional development and address the negative effects of the border” (p.96).\nThe <strong>Towards a Border Development Zone </strong>(BDZ) action research project explores the potential of a joint economic development approach across the whole Irish and Northern Irish cross-border region. The idea for the Border Development Zone originated in a meeting of policy makers (including representatives of InterTradeIreland, Invest NI, Forfás, Enterprise Ireland and IBEC) in Newry in September 2011 to discuss the emerging findings of the Bradley &amp; Best report, <em>Cross-Border Economic Renewal: Rethinking Regional Policy in Ireland</em>, which was commissioned by the <a href=\"http://www.crossborder.ie/\">Centre for Cross Border Studies</a> (CCBS). <a name=\"files\"></a>\n<h2><span style=\"font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;\">Day 1 - January 30, 2014 </span></h2>\n<table style=\"text-align: left; width: 600px;\" border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"2\" cellpadding=\"2\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"vertical-align: top;\"><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">14.00 Welcome Address</span>\nMr. John Driscoll, Director, ICLRD\nMs. Ruth Taillon, Director, Centre for Cross Border Studies</td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center; background-color: #ffffff;\"><a href=\"http://www.crossborder.ie//wp-content/audio/1-welcome-john-ruth.MP3\" target=\"_blank\"><img style=\"border: 0px solid; width: 20px; height: 20px;\" src=\"http://dev.iclrd.org/iclrd2/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Audio_Icon-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" /></a></td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center; background-color: #ffffff;\"><a href=\"http://www.crossborder.ie/wp-content/uploads/JohnDriscoll.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"><img style=\"border: 0px solid; width: 20px; height: 19px;\" src=\"http://dev.iclrd.org/iclrd2/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/presentation-icon-1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"102\" height=\"98\" /></a></td>\n</tr>\n</tbody>\n</table>\n<h2><span style=\"font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;\">Session 1</span><strong>: <em>Local Government as Drivers of Territorial Cohesion</em></strong></h2>\n<table style=\"text-align: left; width: 600px;\" border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"2\" cellpadding=\"2\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"vertical-align: top;\"><strong>14.20 Introduction to Session</strong> Ms. Ruth Taillon, Director, Centre for Cross Border Studies<strong></strong></td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center; background-color: #ffffff;\"></td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center; background-color: #ffffff;\"></td>\n</tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"vertical-align: top;\"><strong>14.25 Integrating Territorial Cohesion and the Economic Agenda: The Role of Local and Regional Government in Cross-Border Cooperation</strong> Dr. Joachim Beck, Director, Euro-Institute, Kehl, Germany This will focus on the period 2014-2020, considering the application of Territorial Cohesion and its core objectives in the Irish border region.

This website has been developed as part of the EU INTERREG IVA Programme, Cross-Border Spatial Planning and Training Network (CroSPlaN II), which is managed by the Special EU Programmes Body.\nDeveloped to reflect the changing competencies of local government, and the growing emphasis being placed on the sharing of resources, expertise and costs, this website provides access to a range of case studies, model agreements, and reference documents.&nbsp; It also includes a number of submissions by participants in the ICLRD’s ‘Shared Services Learning Network’ which is operating across the island of Ireland. Together, this range of resources will help inform key decision- and policy- makers, as well as practitioners, about the modalities and benefits of adopting a shared services approach in a range of service domains, including:\n<ul>\n 	<li>Emergency Services (e.g.: emergency planning, fire, EMS)</li>\n 	<li>Arts, Heritage and Culture (e.g.: cultural heritage conservation)</li>\n 	<li>Parks and Recreation (e.g.: cross-border nature parks, wildlife programmes)</li>\n 	<li>Tourism (e.g.: trans-boundary authorities and promotion of tourist attractions)</li>\n 	<li>Specialised Services (e.g.: regional health authorities, cooperative purchasing).</li>\n</ul>\nThe resources available through this site highlight cross-border and trans-boundary cases, agreements, and examples of shared services and emphasises \"front-line\" services (as opposed to back office functions). The service areas explored here have been determined by a cross-border shared services working group involving local, regional and central government representatives from across the island of Ireland, and takes into consideration the various functions and responsibilities of local councils on the island of Ireland.\nThe Shared Services project is one of the key projects under the wider Ireland-Northern Ireland Cross-Border Cooperation Observatory (INICCO II) Programme.\nFor more information, visit the site at <a href=\"http://iclrd.org/sharedservices\" target=\"_blank\">iclrd.org/sharedservices</a>','ICLRD launches Shared Services Website','','publish','closed','closed','','iclrd-launches-shared-services-website','','','2020-10-12 20:56:36','2020-10-12 20:56:36','',0,'http://iclrd.org/?p=3758',0,'post','',0),(3777,14,'2014-06-28 15:56:41','2014-06-28 20:56:41','<strong>Title: </strong>The Role of Development and Area Plans in Economic Growth and Regeneration\n<strong>Venue:</strong> Armagh City Hotel, Armagh\n<strong>Date:</strong> 26 June 2014\n<strong>Access the seminar programme <a href=\"http://dev.iclrd.org/iclrd2/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/The-Role-of-Development-and-Area-Plans-in-Economic-Growth-and-Regeneration-1.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">here </a></strong><strong>\n</strong>\nWith the ongoing reform of local government in both jurisdictions on the island of Ireland, and the new responsibilities of Local Authorities in terms of spatial planning, regeneration and service delivery through community planning, this seminar will address the role that local government can play in economic growth and regeneration through the development and implementation of effective Development and Area Plans.\nDuring the course of this one-day event, themes that will be discussed include:\n• An overview of the current Local Government Reform Processes, North and South, with a particular emphasis on spatial planning and visioning for the future;\n• The need for greater alignment between economic development, regeneration and spatial planning;\n• Developing effective Development Plans / Area Plans, and considering their linkages to Community Planning;\n• Nurturing a professional working relationship between council officials, elected representatives and other key stakeholders; and\n• The practicalities of operating within the spatial planning system, with an emphasis on the development plan process.\nThis seminar was made possible thanks to the support of the Department of the Environment, Northern Ireland and the Department of the Environment, Community and Local Government, Republic of Ireland.\nTo register for the seminar, which is free-of-charge, please email your name, organisation and job title/position to Carol Dunbar at Co-operation Ireland – <a href=\"mailto:cdunbar@cooperationireland.org\">cdunbar@cooperationireland.org</a>','Upcoming Joint Co-operation Ireland / ICLRD seminar','','publish','closed','closed','','upcoming-joint-co-operation-ireland-iclrd-seminar','','','2014-06-28 15:56:41','2014-06-28 20:56:41','',0,'http://iclrd.org/?p=3777',0,'post','',0),(3778,14,'2014-06-28 15:55:20','2014-06-28 20:55:20','','The Role of Development and Area Plans in Economic Growth and Regeneration','','inherit','closed','closed','','the-role-of-development-and-area-plans-in-economic-growth-and-regeneration','','','2014-06-28 15:55:20','2014-06-28 20:55:20','',3777,'http://dev.iclrd.org/iclrd2/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/The-Role-of-Development-and-Area-Plans-in-Economic-Growth-and-Regeneration-1.pdf',0,'attachment','application/pdf',0),(3807,14,'2014-07-25 09:53:23','2014-07-25 14:53:23','The National Institute for Regional and Spatial Analysis (NIRSA) in association with ESPON is hosting a one-day conference on 26 September 2014 at NUI Maynooth focused on <strong>Creating the Regions of Tomorrow: Maximising Ireland’s Reform Opportunity</strong>.\nThe conference aims to take stock of the recent economic crisis and fiscal austerity measures and will have a specific focus on the spatial dimension of policy implementation, particularly the review of the National Spatial Strategy and the new Regional Spatial and Economic Strategies proposed in Ireland.\nThe conference is free-of-charge, but registration is essential.
