are these GP’s
relevant for the spatial planning / management situations ?
good enough to be used / adopted in the regions
Which types of GP’s are still lacking ?

7. Good Practices in Spatial Planning
Challenges
In recent years, a new attitude to planning has emerged - more positive, participatory and project- oriented.
The plan is now understood as a “project of a city or region” - a process to anticipate the character and location of key features of a region and to design the most efficient means for their execution and realisation.

8. Good Practices in Spatial Planning
What are the good practices for ? what is the sense of studying them?
The GP’s should help to:
understand how to solve important issues and/or contributions to the quality of different environments (also where SP has been absent so far)
check feasibility of methodological advancements in spatial planning / management, verify their usefulness in the regional / local practice
