Learning from Copenhagen and Malmö
LEARNING FROM COPENHAGEN AND MALMÖ September 2010 TEN Group TEN is a small group of senior local government officers in London who have met regularly over seven years to share ideas and exchange knowledge on how to achieve urban renaissance. Using the principle of looking and learning they visit pioneering projects to draw out lessons that can be applied in their own authorities. In the process the members develop their skills as urban impresarios and place-makers, and are able to build up the capacity of their authorities to tackle major projects.

Preliminary Overview of City Measures to Mitigate the Socio- Economic Impact of COVID-19
Preliminary overview of city measures to mitigate the socio- economic impact of COVID-19 Policy note 4 May 2020 Cities are on the frontline of managing the COVID-19 crisis. They are dealing with the immediate consequences of the crisis. Many cities have adapted their services in quick, effective, and innovative ways to respond to the emergency. As we are moving past the emergency stage of this crisis, many cities are pro-actively setting out measures to mitigate the social and economic effects of the COVID-19 crisis on people, jobs, businesses, the local economy and equality and inclusion in cities. EUROCITIES has compiled a preliminary overview of policy responses that cities have recently adopted to mitigate the socio-economic effects of the COVID-19 crisis in the short, medium and long-term. This document builds on an existing collection of economic measures on subnational level assembled in the Economic Bulletin N°3 of the European Committee of the Regions. It also brings together examples from about 50 cities that were published on cities’ websites, and on our EUROCITIES web platform www.covidnews.eurocities.eu. In a nutshell, the most common mitigating measures in cities are: • providing financial aid to local businesses and people most affected by COVID-19 crisis • improving the conditions and access to loans for businesses • pausing rent payments • introducing flexibility and exemption of tax and fee payments • compensating businesses having contracts with the municipality • compensating for damages • involving private donors -

Eurovision Choir 2019: Press Handbook
PRESS HANDBOOK Eurovision Choir 2019 Press, Delegation & Production Handbook DISTRIBUTION: Press, Delegations, Production Dear friends, It is with great pride and excitement that I welcome you to the second edition of Eurovision Choir, here in Gothenburg. Those of us who were fortunate enough to be involved in the production during Latvian Television’s first edition in Riga hold many fond memories of launching Eurovision’s newest competition format. The show was spectacular, the choirs stunning and the music sublime. But what remains most strongly in my memory is the unique atmosphere of the backstage area around the show. I recall a festive atmosphere, almost a party, as nine choirs traded songs across the dressing room walls. And indeed, this is a festival – a festival of the beauty and diversity of choral singing in Europe, and of what can be achieved by joining our voices. So it seems true – singing is good for the soul. Thanks to those of you who have made the journey to attend Eurovision Choir 2019 in Gothenburg. Good luck to all the choirs taking part and enjoy the show! Jon Ola Sand Executive Supervisor, Eurovision Song Contest & Eurovision Live Events.

In the event of any inconsistencies, the Danish version shall apply. Long-Term Budget 111 3 Annual Report 2015 Foreword Dear reader, In many ways, 2015 was a significant year. In total, more than 57 million passengers took the metro, which was over 1 million passengers more than in 2014. 2015 was also characterised by the adverse aspects of the implementation of major infrastructure im- provement projects. We completed the installation of platform doors at the many overground metro stations. The major construction projects at Nørreport were also completed, so that passengers can now transfer easily and effectively between bus, train and metro at Denmarkʼs largest traffic hub. The platform doors at all metro stations ensure pas- sengers even more stable operation, more departures during rush-hour periods, and stations that offer better shelter from the wind and adverse weather conditions. -
Effects of Spatial Interaction on Spatial Structure: a Case of Daycentre Location in Malmo
Geographical Review of Japan Vol. 66 (Ser. B), No. 2, 156-172, 1993 Effects of Spatial Interaction on Spatial Structure: A Case of Daycentre Location in Malmo Jun YAMASHITA* Abstract The locational structure effects on spatial interaction in distance-decay models have been discussed since the 1970s. This discussion has led many geographers to obtaine distance-decay parameters affected not by spatial autocorrelation but by friction of distance. As BENNETTet al. (1985) stressed, however, we should recognize that spatial structure and spatial interaction are interdependently related. Thus, the present study explores spatial interaction effects on spatial structure. First, using the SIMODEL developed by Williams and FOTHERINGHAM(1984), a distance-decay parameter was estimated for intra-urban trips travelled by pensioners to daycentres in Malmo, Sweden. In addition, location patterns of those daycentres and spatial autocorrelation between them were identified by the nearest neighbour measure and Moran's coefficient, respectively. Second, through solving a location-spatial interaction model, effects of spatial interaction on spatial structure were examined in three cases of distance-decay para meter. It was proven that the three cases of distance-decay parameter caused different location patterns. Combined with previous studies addressed to the spatial structure effects on spatial interaction, the interdependency between spatial interaction and spatial structure was ex plicated. Key Words: spatial interaction, spatial structure, spatial autocorrelation, location-spatial interac tion model, elderly care facility. ates2. In short, the spatial structure effects or I. INTRODUCTION the map pattern effects are defined as locational structure effects of origins and destinations on Relationship between spatial interaction and parameter estimates.
