Land-based Planners’ Forum project begins

In the face of challenges like climate and demographic changes, geopolitical shifts, and the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, spatial planners in the Baltic Sea Region need more than traditional approaches. The Planners’ Forum project, funded by the Swedish Institute, launching with an online kick-off meeting on 2 December 2024, aims to enhance the capacity of Baltic Sea Region planners by fostering collaboration across all governance levels.

This newly initiated network and platform — Land-based Planners’ Forum — will offer an informal, supportive space for sharing best practices and innovative solutions, empowering planners to build resilience and promote sustainable growth in both urban and rural areas. Partners, institutions, and organizations from across the Baltic Sea Region will gather to kickstart this collaboration to shape the future of spatial planning across the region.
