  • Council of Europe European Landscape Convention
    COUNCIL OF EUROPE EUROPEAN LANDSCAPE CONVENTION National Workshop on the implementation of the European Landscape Convention in Bosnia and Herzegovina Drawing landscape policies for the future Trebinje, Bosnia and Herzegovina 25-26 January 2018 SESSION 1 SERBIA Mrs Jasminka LUKOVIC JAGLICIC Director Advisor, Regional Economic Development Agency, Sumadija and Pomoravlje The role of the Regional Economic Development Agency for Sumadija and Pomoravlje in the process of the implementation of the European Landscape Convention at regional and local level The Regional Economic Development Agency for Sumadija and Pomoravlje was founded in 2002 as the partnership between public, civil and private sectors, with the purpose of planning and management of equal territorial development. The Law on Regional Development (adopted in July 2009, “Official Gazette of the Republic of Serbia”, No. 51/2009, 30/2010 and 89/2015) defined the competence and area of intervention of regional development agencies for planning of development processes at regional level, applying the principles of broad stakeholder participation, inter-municipal and cross-sector approach in identifying problems and measures to address them. REDASP consistently applies these principles in its work on the one hand and has the ratification of the European Landscape Convention on the other hand. Thus the Republic of Serbia has recognised the landscape as an essential component of the human environment and agreed to 1). establish and implement a set of policies aimed at the protection, management and planning of the area and 2). to establish procedures for involvement of the wider public, local and regional authorities, as well as other landscape policy stakeholders.

Significant quantities of raspberries in the country are produced in the territory of Kolubara District, thanks to the good resource basis and benefits of climate conditions. Confronted with numerous obstacles while participating in the sophisticated European market, raspberry producers from Kolubara District should establish stronger links with market restaurateurs and other entrepreneurs from Istria and thus their products could reach the consumers from all over the world during their visits to Istria in the summer months. The aim of this paper is to point out the importance of increasing the volume of mutual cooperation between district and county in order to become competitive on the European market. Key words: production of raspberries, Kolubara district, county of Istria, bilateral cooperation JEL Classification: D13, D14, L17, L66, O13, Q13, Q17 Introduction The basic development of the Kolubara District is represented by the primary agricultural production and food processing industries. Fruit growing, as a form of primary production, is characterized by a number of comparative advantages over other branches of agriculture, and raspberry growing is characterized by a number of advantages over the other branches of fruit growing.

In particular, this platform will involve policy makers and decision makers at the national and sub-national level to promote the adoption of more effective services and regulations of the migration flows across the SEE area. In order to support and stimulate the dialogue within the Platform ad hoc migration profiles (MPs) will be developed for each partner country and will integrate the information and knowledge already provided by Demographic projections and Policy scenarios. The current MP focuses on the case of Serbia and it’s centred around five topics: resident foreign population by gender, age cohorts and citizenship; population flows (internal migration, emigration, immigration); immigrants presence in the national labour market; foreign population by level of educational attainment; remittances/transfers of money to country of origin.
