PAST APPLICATION EVENTS PAST IMPLEMENTATION EVENTS PAST PUBLIC EVENTSBürgerhaus Eilenburg, 28. Mai 2019, 10-16 Uhr
Begriffe wie „Hitzesommer“, „Starkregen“ und „Artensterben“ prägen mehr denn je unsere täglichen Nachrichten. Sie bezeichnen Folgen auf die Gesundheit und Lebensqualität der Menschen, die Biologische Vielfalt sowie die dauerhafte Nutzbarkeit unserer Naturgüter. Ihnen entgegenzuwirken, stellt eine der wesentlichen globalen Herausforderungen des 21. Jahrhunderts dar.
Aktuell sind auf europäischer Ebene hierzu mit der EU-Strategie zur Grünen Infrastruktur sowie dem Konzept der Ökosystemdienstleistungen planerisch-strategische Ansätze entwickelt, welche es nun sowohl zu konkretisieren als auch zukünftig in regionale Planungen zu implementieren gilt.
Wie dies am Beispiel der Dübener Heide gelingen kann, soll der Workshop in Eilenburg aufzeigen. Während der Veranstaltung wird u. a. das Konzept der Grünen Infrastruktur vorgestellt. Die Verbesserung der Kommunikation und der Wahrnehmung von grüner Infrastruktur und damit einem (Teil-)Wert Naturparkes Dübener Heide nach „innen“ — also für die Bewohner — soll dabei im Vordergrund stehen.
Der Workshop richtet sich an VertreterInnen von Kommunen, (Fach-)Behörden, Landnutzer, Regionale Planungsstellen, Forschungseinrichtungen, Hochschulen und Verbände aus der Region Dübener Heide sowie an Digitalexperten, Marketing– und Kommunikationsexperten, die sich mit der Verbesserung, Kommunikation und der Wahrnehmung von grüner Infrastruktur befassen.

The Eurasian lynx is a highly endangered species, protected under national laws and the EU Habitat Directive. The main threats for lynx survival are illegal killing, happening due to lack of acceptance by key stakeholders and habitat fragmentation hindering migration. In addition, non-harmonised (national) monitoring and management hamper a coordinated approach. The challenge is to integrate lynx monitoring, conservation and management into a common strategy on transnational level.

Symposium on innovative financing schemes for energy efficient public buildings
Save the date!
Top-level speakers will introduce their practical experiences, lessons learned and provide recommendations for public authorities on how to make best use of alternative financing instruments.
Using innovative financing schemes for up-grading the energy efficiency of public buildings can be one key activity to fulfill the goals of the European Energy Perfomance of Buildings Directive on a municipal level. Alternative financing approaches such as public private partnerships, energy performance contracting and crowdfunding as well as the ELENA-initiative from the European Investment bank provide new instruments to transform public buildings to nearly zero energy buildings and reduce the strain on public budget.

PLANNING FOR TRANSITION
This year's AESOP* Annual Congress invites scholars and practitioners to present and discuss case studies of cities and projects that have engaged in meeting challenging situations – supporting transitions in urban contexts. Specifically, it is aimed at offering an understanding of the forms of knowledge, concepts, tools, and skills needed to plan and address transition in times of rapid climate and societal changes. Furthermore, it seeks to explore whether (and how) managing such changes has brought any overall reconsideration of the city design model and towards more general institutional reconfigurations.
MaGICLandscapes will be presented by representatives of project partner Città Metropolitana di Torino in the special session "Planning and Designing Green Infrastructures."
*Association of European Schools of Planning

We believe that #cooperationiscentral to make regions and cities more attractive and we will be part of the #EURegionsWeek! Our Idea Lab workshops will be discussing cooperation achievements and challenging the debate on the future Interreg cooperation in our programme area as well as on the broader European scale.
This year, the European regions, cities and their stakeholders are asking themselves about what kind of cooperation and in which areas is needed. We, at CENTRAL EUROPE have asked experts to analyse territorial challenges, needs and potentials of transnational cooperation in this functional area. In our Idea lab session, practitioners and policy makers will share their views and ideas on future orientation of the programme.
