The main objective of the EURODITE project was to investigate knowledge innovations in game development dynamics; that is, how knowledge is generated, developed and transferred within and among fi rms or organisations, and their regional contexts. and fi lm tourism Empirical research on knowledge dynamics has been based on the building blocks of region, sector, and both territorial and fi rm-level knowledge. Territorial knowledge dynamics concern knowledge exchange, networks and interactions among actors across territories, both internal and extra- Margareta Dahlström, Sigrid Hedin and Lise Smed Olsen with regional. Firm-level knowledge dynamics contributes a deeper understanding of knowledge dynamics contributions from Sara Östberg, Christian Dymén and Anu by studying the interactions within a fi rm or organisation and between fi rms or organisations that result in an innovation; for instance, a new or improved product. Henriksson This report includes the description and analysis of two sets of territorial knowledge dynamics with accompanying fi rm-level knowledge dynamics in the moving media sector in the Skåne region of Sweden. The fi rst case study looks at knowledge dynamics within computer game development NORDREGIO REPORT 2010:1 and a micro-level study of the development of the serious game ‘Agent O’. The second case study elaborates on the knowledge dynamics related to fi lm production and tourism with a micro-level study of the marketing collaboration ‘The Film Track’. In addition, these case studies have been placed in a wider European perspective by comparing them with the other case studies performed within the project. It is clear from the project’s case studies that knowledge dynamics are multiscalar and include important interactions at great distances. We conclude that cross-sectoral knowledge interactions are seed-beds for innovation and drive product development. Finally, knowledge interactions include many types of actors conducting a variety of knowledge interactions. In any region, there is a vast amount of intertwined evolution of knowledge dynamics. A multitude of strategies and actions is utilised by fi rms, higher education institutions and other actors to seek fi out and to utilise the knowledge needed wherever it is located. Tailor-made and progressive policy lm tourism 2010:1 NORDREGIO REPORT support of such processes is needed to avoid lock-ins and promote innovative regional development The report aims at policymakers and practitioners within economic development work, business organisations, chambers of commerce, the higher education sector, and researchers of knowledge dynamics, innovation, regional development and policy.

P. O. Box 5015, 2600 GA Delft, The Netherlands. Abstract This paper discusses the dynamics of coastal policy change in Sweden, using erosion and beach nourishments as an example. The Multiple Stream Model is a theoretical model on agenda setting and policy change devel- oped by the political scientist John Kingdon (1984, 2003). This paper applies Kingdon’s model in describing and explaining coastal policy dynamics regarding coastal erosion in Sweden. Coastal protection is not a separate policy field in Sweden: interventions to protect the (common) coast form a component of spatial planning, which is largely the responsibility of the municipalities. Our analysis reveals that interventions to protect the coast are indeed organized at a local level, by landowners and the municipality, driven by a strong problem perception. This problem perception is articulated as a local voice seeking increased acknowledgement of the coastal erosion issue by the national government.

  • Coastal Erosion Risks in the BSR Countries
    Coastal erosion risks in the BSR countries Coastal floods Coastal erosion Europe Vulnerabilities - European coasts All European coastal states are to some extent affected by coastal erosion. About twenty thousand kilometres of coasts, corresponding to 20% face serious impacts in 2004. Most of the impact zones (15,100 km) are actively retreating, some of them in spite of coastal protection works (2,900 km). In addition, another 4,700 km have become artificially stabilised (1). The risk of coastal flooding due to the undermining of coastal dunes and sea defences potentially affects several thousands of square kilometres and millions of people. Over the past 50 years, the population living in European coastal municipalities has more than doubled to reach 70 millions inhabitants in 2001 and the total value of economic assets located within 500 meters from the coastline has multiplied to an estimated 500-1000 billion Euros in 2000 (1). The cost of coastal erosion (coastline protection against the risk of erosion and flooding) has been estimated to average 5,400 million euro per year between 1990 and 2020 (2). Coastal erosion results in three different types of impacts (or risks): Loss of land with economical value Destruction of natural sea defences (usually a dune system) as a result of storm events, which may result in flooding of the hinterland. Undermining of artificial sea defences as a result of chronic sediment shortage Human factors Coastal erosion is influenced by several human factors, including (1): Coastal engineering. The waterfronts of urban, tourism or industrial zones have usually been engineered by way of seawalls, dykes, breakwaters, jetties, or any hard and rock-armoured structures, which aims at protecting the construction or other assets landwards the coastline from the assault of the sea.

  • National Strategy for Climate Change Adaptation
    Description of the Government Bill 2017/18:163 National Strategy for Climate Change Adaptation The main content of the bill The bill proposes two changes to the Planning and Building Act (2010:900) with the aim of improving municipalities’ preparedness for climate change. One of these changes involves a requirement for municipalities to provide their views in their structure plans on the risk of damage to the built environment as a result of climate-related flooding, landslides and erosion, and on how such risks can be reduced or eliminated. The other change involves the municipality being able to decide in a detailed development plan that a site improvement permit is required for ground measures that may reduce the ground’s permeability and that are not being taken to build a street, road or railway that is compatible with the detailed development plan. The Government also reports on a National Strategy for Climate Change Adaptation in order to strengthen climate change adaptation work and the national coordination of this work in the long term. The strategy was announced in the Government’s written communication ‘Kontrollstation för de klimat- och energipolitiska målen till 2020 samt klimatanpassning’ (‘Control station for the 2020 climate and energy policy objectives and climate change adaptation’, Riksdag Communication 2015/16:87). Through the strategy, the Government also meets its obligations in accordance with the Paris Agreement and the EU Strategy on Adaptation to Climate Change, in which a national climate change adaptation strategy is highlighted as a central analytical instrument that is intended to explain and prioritise actions and investments.
