-workshop keskittyy kestävän yhdyskuntasuunnittelun pohjoismaisiin
käytäntöihin
ja työkaluihin. Työpajassa kartoitetaan mm. kiinnostusta pohjoismaiden
yhteisiin kestävän yhdyskunnan suunnittelun työkaluihin ja kuullaan
esimerkkejä hyvistä käytännöistä meiltä ja muista Pohjoismaista.
Tavoitteena on saada eri tahojen näkemykset esille monipuolisen
keskustelun mahdollistamiseksi sekä näkemyksiä mahdollisen
yhteispohjoismaisen suunnittelutyökalun tarpeellisuudesta.</span><br>

<b><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif"">Urban planning</span></b><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif"">
workshop concentrates especially on sustainable urban planning
practices
and tools utilized in the Nordic countries. Workshop will also give a
perspective on developing possible common Nordic indicators of
sustainable community and examples of used practices. Our objective is
to stir up active conversation by bringing forth all
the diverse viewpoints in the matter and have some common understanding
how we should proceed in Nordic countries in sustainable urban
planning: could we learn something from each other or should we even
start to develop some common tools for more sustainable
urban planning?</span><br>
