EUROPEAN COMMISSION PROJECT ENTRUST
ENTRUST (Empowering Neighbourhoods through Recourse and Synergies with Trade) is an European network of over 50 practitioners, policy-makers and researchers in eight European cities - Berlin, Copenhagen, Dublin, Glasgow, Hamburg, Lisbon, Valetta and Vilnius. In 2002 - 2004 the project was supported by the European Commission under the Fifth Framework RTD Programme/Key Action 4 'City of Tomorrow and Cultural Heritage'. ENTRUST followed up and extended previous steps of cooperation in INTERREG IIC (Integrated Urban Planning and Management, 1998-2001).
Project partners shared innovative experience of various cities and produced guidelines to various stakeholders how to form mixed public-private partnerships working on regenerating deprived neighbourhoods, reversing decline and moving towards sustainability through increasing competitiveness, improving quality of life and enhancing cultural identity. The report (http://ensure.org/entrust/index.htm) sums up the results of two and a half years' intensive exchange. During this time, all participants documented case studies, distilled thematic evidence and drew lessons from their respective cases.
