Programme

In preparation for the round table С2 «Municipal Strategies 2000-2010: Different Fortunes» Leontief Centre and the Institute for Urban Economics supported by the Ministry of Regional Development of Russian Federation are conducting a study of experience of strategic planning in the municipalities, who started this practice about 10 years ago. Municipalities and cities where a strategic document (a concept or a program) was enacted no later than 2005, and has a term of not less than 2010, were invited to participate in the research project. Municipal Administrations were suggested to submit an analytical note of a standard type. The results are placed in the section Analytical notes. Additionally, a number of materials prepared by research staff/consultants who participated in the document’s formulation process or watching the situation from the outside are placed in the section Independent opinions.
