Conference on sustainable urban management and land use - research to application

The European Commission's DG Research, together with the Senate of the Czech Republic, is organising a conference entitled 'sustainable urban management and land use - from European research to application at the local level' to take place in Prague, Czech Republic, on 1 and 2 July.

The event has two key objectives. First, to encourage the dissemination and uptake of results from Fifth Framework Programme (FP5) research projects on sustainable urban management and land use, promoting the transfer of knowledge to practitioners and policy makers alike.

Second, the conference will seek to promote participation in FP6 under the 'Global change and ecosystems' and 'Scientific support to policy' priorities, with a special focus on the ten new EU Member States, as well as the candidate countries.To register for the conference, please consult the following we address:
