Projektledare: Madeleine Nilsson, [email protected], Region Skåne. Projektledare för Skånes del i OECD TR Megaregion Western Scandinavia 1 Foreword Region Skåne and the City of Helsingborg, together with partners in Western Sweden and the Oslo region, have commissioned the OECD to conduct a so-called Territorial Review of the Megaregion Western Scandinavia. A review of opportunities and potential for greater integration and cooperation between the regions and cities in Western Scandinavia. This report is a brief summary of the supporting data submitted by Skåne to the OECD in December 2016 and mainly contains regional trends, strengths and weaknesses. The report largely follows the arrangement of all the supporting data submitted to the OECD, however, the policy sections have been omitted. All the data sets have been produced by a number of employees of Region Skåne and the City of Helsingborg. During the spring, corresponding reports have been produced for both Western Sweden and the Oslo region. The first study mission was conducted by the OECD in January 2017, where they met with experts and representatives from Skåne and the Megaregion. In late April, the OECD will be visiting Skåne and the Megaregion again with peer reviewers from Barcelona, Vienna and Vancouver for a second round of study mission. The OECD’s final report will be presented and decided upon within the OECD Regional Development Policy Committee (RDPC) in December 2017, and subsequently the OECD Territorial Review Megaregion Western Scandinavia will be published.

We are now gathering around a joint strategic objective to achieve an open Skåne by 2030. An open Skåne that welcomes plural- ism, more people and new ideas. A Skåne that is characterised by high tolerance and widespread participation in common social issues. The open Skåne encompasses an open landscape as well as urbanisation. The open Skåne breaks national boundaries and is a natural part of the Öresund Region. The open Skåne offers everyone the chance of a good life. Together we have also selected five prioritised areas that we need to work with in order to achieve a completely open Skåne: Skåne shall offer optimism and quality of life, be a strong, sus- tainable growth engine, benefit from its polycentric urban structure, develop the welfare services of tomorrow and be globally attractive.
