How can security and cohesion reinforce each other rather than undermining each other? Jean Claude Zeimet and I explore alternative futures for Europe’s north-eastern border regions: https://steady.page/en/spatialforesight/posts/d60206a7-7742-4c8a-bd7f-1184a04ee609.
The scenarios range from fortified buffer zones to democratic showcases and managed reconciliation. These scenarios were developed within the ESPON CHANEBO project and are intended to stimulate reflection on Europe’s strategic choices and their territorial consequences, rather than being predictions. They raise crucial questions for the coming decades:
How can security and cohesion reinforce each other rather than undermining each other?
Can border regions shift from being Europe’s periphery to becoming its laboratories of resilience?
And what would it take to transform vulnerability into shared strength?

The result of a visualisation speedrun with the #ESPON dataset (https://espon.eu/tools-maps/espon-database). The points represent schools - can you guess the meaning of the different colours?
Tool: #QGIS
More than 1.500 different #crossborder public services were identified in the 🇪🇺 #europeanunion in May 2022 and the policy areas mostly addressed were #transport (61.5%), #environmentalprotection (8.6%) and civil protection and #disastermanagement (8.5%). You can read more in the recent #ESPON study conducted in close cooperation with #DGRegio : https://www.espon.eu/cps-2
Cross-border Public Services (CPS) address joint problems or development potentials of cross-border regions. Being provided on a long-term basis they aim to generate benefits for the general public or a specific target group in the cross-border territory in which the service is provided, thereby contributing to improving living conditions in border regions. The ESPON CPS 2.0 study focuses on an upgrade and update of the CPS inventory produced within the ESPON targeted analysis in 2018.
