Creating Prosperous Towns
A book that summarizes our experience on how to do successful territorial development
Local and regional economic development
mesopartner is a thought leader in the field of local and regional economic development. mesopartner has developed a concise perspective at local and regional economic development that avoids the usual confusion between economic and social perspectives, and between planning- and communication-based approaches.
We can assist you with the entire cycle of local and regional development activities:
- designing and planning the process
- train your staff and local stakeholders on the key issues
- introduce and create local capacity for key tools like LED Café, PACA and Compass
- analyse the local reality with tools like Regional Economic Potential Analysis
- facilitate the formulation of a strategy with the Genesis method
We help you to build a process for local or regional economic development that overcomes fragmentation and exclusion, thus helping you to deliver on indicators that are informed by the Millenium Development Goals.
