  • AEBR Cross Border Award "Sail of Papenburg"
    AEBR Cross Border Award "Sail of Papenburg" Main idea On the occasion of the Annual Conference and General Assembly 2002 (Papenburg/Groningen) of the Association of European Border Regions (AEBR), the Ems Dollart Region (EDR) endowed the AEBR 'Sail of +6 Papenburg' Cross-Border Award. The award honours particular achievements in the area of cross-border cooperation, e.g. in the cultural, economic, institutional, environmental and social sphere in a border or cross-border region. The award honours and motivates: it honours outstanding programmes / strategies, projects and actions within the scope of cross-border co- operation that preferably can be seen as exemplary. At the same time it should motivate border and cross-border regions to actively contribute to a better understanding and better relations at the borders between the nations throughout Europe. Thereby European integration at the borders will be directly promoted. Although the Sail of Papenburg is above all a prestige award, in exceptional circumstances prize money may be granted to financially support efforts made by a particular region. Presentation by AEBR Target criteria: Honoured are outstanding achievements in and / or by a border and cross- border region (subnational entities). In principle only organisations aiming to boost direct neighbourly cooperation along a national border are eligible for the award1. They include in particular institutionalised cross- border associations (eg. Euroregions and similar structures). Membership in the European Union or AEBR is not required. Applicants may submit cross-border projects (individual and packages), measures and / or also overall achievements / efforts (programmes / strategies) in a border or cross-border region. The specific guidelines for every year (motto, individual project or programme / strategy etc.) are settled by the AEBR.

  • Hydrodynamics and Morphology in the Ems/Dollard Estuary: Review of Models, Measurements, Scientific Literature, and the Effects of Changing Conditions
    1 Hydrodynamics and Morphology in the Ems/Dollard Estuary: Review of Models, Measurements, Scientific Literature, and the Effects of Changing Conditions Stefan A. Talke Huib E. de Swart University of Utrecht Institute for Marine and Atmospheric Research Utrecht (IMAU) January 25, 2006 IMAU Report # R06-01 2 Executive Summary / Abstract The Ems estuary has constantly changed over the past centuries both from man-made and natural influences. On the time scale of thousands of years, sea level rise has created the estuary and dynamically changed its boundaries. More recently, storm surges created the Dollard sub-basin in the 14th -15th centuries. Beginning in the 16th century, diking and reclamation of land has greatly altered the surface area of the Ems estuary, particularly in the Dollard. These natural and anthropogenic changes to the surface area of the Ems altered the flow patterns of water, the tidal characteristics, and the patterns of sediment deposition and erosion. Since 1945, reclamation of land has halted and the borders of the Ems estuary have changed little. Sea level rise has continued, and over the past 40 years the rate of increase in mean high water (MHW) along the German coast has accelerated to 40 cm/ century. Climate has varied on a decadal time scale due to long-term variations in the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO), which controls precipitation, temperature, and the direction and magnitude of winds. Between 1960 and 1990 the most intense variation in the NAO index on record was observed. As a result the magnitude and frequency of storm surges increased, and mean wave heights increased at 1-2 cm/year.

  • Manual on Removing Obstacles to Cross-Border
    MANUAL ON REMOVING November OBSTACLES TO CROSS- 2013 BORDER COOPERATION It is with Europe’s citizens in mind that the ministers responsible for local and regional government of the 47 member States of the Council of Europe launched in 2009 a major survey of difficulties and obstacles that hamper the cooperation across the borders and agreed in 2011 to further develop their cooperation with a view to reduce or remove those obstacles.This Manual is a compilation of both difficulties recorded across the frontiers and solutions found to overcome them. With the help of ISIG of Gorizia (Italy) the data collected through a questionnaire have been systematised and organised in such a way as to enable all actors of crossborder cooperation to find examples that correspond to their situation and solutions that may help them to adopt the response to their needs. 2 FOREWORD FOREWORD Since its establishment in 1949, the Council of Europe, the first political Organisation of the European continent and the only truly pan-European organisation, with its 47 member states (at the time of writing in November 2013), has consistently worked for the development of a “Europe without dividing lines”, in the spheres of human rights, rule of law and democracy. One of its fields of activity has been local and regional governance, with special attention being paid to the principles of local government, the promotion of effective local democracy and citizens’ participation and the facilitation of forms of cooperation between local and regional authorities across political boundaries. Four conventions, several recommendations and a handful of practical tools (all available at: www.coe.int/local) embody this work aimed at making cooperation between neighbouring or non-adjacent territorial communities or authorities legally feasible and practically sustainable.
