This consolidated report as a guidebook for regional pilots is a result of reiterative processes between partners during the activities related to regional pilots. Regional lessons learned are based on pilot implementation processes that constituted the innovation ecosystem experiences of Smart Up BSR partners. The contributing partners are listed below. 4 1. Introduction This report consolidates regional lessons learned in the specific Smart-Up BSR regions based on pilot implementation processes that constituted the innovation ecosystem experiences of Smart Up BSR partners. The presented results function as a guidebook for other regions both in the Baltic Sea macro-region and elsewhere in Europe. With a view of how transformational processes can actively be promoted cross-regionally and at macro-region level, this guidebook includes a selected group of activities around the concept of thematic piloting (active healthy aging, smart city, climate change, circular economy) as a method to increase innovativeness at inter-regional level. Thematic piloting in the four chosen themes derives from the goals of the European priorities. More importantly, as the pilot overview and analysis for the Smart-Up BSR regional pilots show, thematic piloting can be considered a major playfield for sustainable and entrepreneurial economic transformation that requires capacity building in the Baltic Sea Region. The contributions of the Baltic Sea regions within the Smart-Up BSR project lead us to insights on what lessons can be learned and what tools are needed for regional implementation. 5 2. Thematic pilots The European approach to a digital future is based on three main pillars which have the role to ensure opportunities for citizens and businesses and governments in a multi-level digital transformation. The three pillars are of crucial importance for local and regional implementation as they ensure that the EU’s digital strategy will foster technology innovation that works for the people, that businesses operate in a fair and competitive digital economy, and that a democratic and sustainable society includes citizens with better control and protection of their data, with the opportunity to develop a health data space to foster targeted research, diagnosis and treatment, and the ability to fight disinformation online and foster diverse and reliable media content. By creating better conditions for the BSR regions to cooperate in the innovation and entrepreneurship activities, the target is not only to support individual regions but also to enhance measures for the BSR to reach the level of smart and innovative macro-region. Examples from the chosen spearhead topics include Activity Healthy, Smart City, Climate Change, and Circular Economy. Based on the innovation camp processes some of the partnering regions have focused their special interest on one or several of these themes to further develop Smart Specialisation policy implementations. Active Healthy Aging The increasing number of older adults is becoming a challenge for many Baltic Sea Region countries, in a similar way as the number is increasing overall in other European countries. There is no doubt that the age profile of society in Baltic Sea Region is rapidly evolving and the proportion of people of working age is shrinking, while the number of older people is expanding. Active and Healthy Ageing (AHA) is about “optimizing opportunities for good health, so that older people can take an active part in society and enjoy an independent and high quality of life” (Swedish Institute for Public Health). This approach emphasizes how older people can contribute in valuable ways to the successful functioning of the society. However, this requires platforms and networks which not only support a healthy and active lifestyle but also build up crucial knowledge and in addition form new skills and experiences. This requires a system-wide support to introduce necessary health promotion interventions on societal level, and construct opportunities for more active involvement of older people to solving societal challenges & tasks, which can pave the way for new policies and new interactive services. 6 AHA can only be achieved by engaging the various stakeholders in finding solutions to their needs and in engaging them to adjust their attitudes on what creates a functional framework of policies, practices, industries and communities that promote healthy and active ageing. Stakeholders are for instance ICT professionals, caregivers, healthcare professionals, elderly and their family members. AHA solutions can be created by consistent interaction leveraging regional and national networks. Cross-regional collaboration can lead to sustainable solutions in AHA networks that benefit all Baltic Sea Region AHA stakeholders. As emphasised in the EUSBSR promotion of health policies1 there is also a connection between the environment and health and well-being of residents in the Baltic Sea Region. Addressing such overarching challenges can therefore not be limited to the local or national level of action and cross-regional cooperation becomes essential to tackle this problem and to ensure prosperity to the region. Climate Change and Plastic-free Baltic Sea Region The Baltic Sea regions are putting sustainability at the top of their agenda. There are several regions in the BSR which operate according to a green mindset and which host a world-class research environment. Finland, Sweden, Denmark, Germany, Estonia, Latvia are already generating sustainable solutions for various industries and administrative areas. Poland, Lithuania and Russia are steadily working towards creating opportunities for innovations with sustainability as a development focus. BSR cities are preparing and implementing action plans to adapt and mitigate climate change based on the Global Covenant of Mayors for Climate and Energy. Linking and upgrading infrastructures, technologies and services in key urban sectors (transport, buildings, energy, ICT) in a smart way will improve the quality of life, competitiveness and sustainability

Background: We recently reported frequent use of opioids among elderly with dementia. Discrepancies in clinical practice may in part explain the higher use of opioids in elderly with dementia, which geographical variation may be able to clarify. Objective: To investigate geographical variation in opioid use in elderly with dementia compared to elderly without dementia. Methods: Register-based cross-sectional study in the entire elderly (≥65 years) population of Denmark in 2015.

  • Urban and Rural Territories - the Role of Cultural Practice to Imagine New Forms of Complementarity
    URBAN AND RURAL TERRITORIES - THE ROLE OF CULTURAL PRACTICE TO IMAGINE NEW FORMS OF COMPLEMENTARITY Lone Leth Larsen International cultural adviser ECoC Aarhus 2017 In Denmark villages are being torn down and closed down! at the same time the bigger towns as Co- penhagen, Århus and Odense experiences a boost of inhabitants and a steep rise in house prices. The towns are sucking up the rural population offering both wellpaid jobs, knowledge communities and a bustling nightlife. This is a global tendency. In 2006 the balance tipped. Before 2006 most people lived in rural areas, after 2006 most people lives in towns and cities, and the movement into towns and cities is happening in a frightful pace as young people today stay in the towns after they have graduated and raise their families here. In former times they went back to the smaller towns or villages to raise a family, this means that smaller towns and villages are emptying quicker than ever. The past eu chairmanship of the Netherlands focussed on urbanism. They developed the idea to perceive the entire country from the point of view of urbanism. The EU agenda is also concerning itself with urbanism, stating that the big cities today have the answers to the challenges of the climate-change, employment and further societal development. The situation of the village is devastating not being able to offer what modern young people need. This creates a quick downward spiral for the villages. The farms today are operated by one person instead of a whole village being involved in the agricul- tural life, and there is more to come, the small farms are bought by big farms, and many people move away because of lack of the traditional rural work.

Infections with avian influenza viruses in domestic poultry and other captive birds cause two main forms of that disease that are distinguished by their virulence. The low pathogenic form generally only causes mild symptoms, while the highly pathogenic form results in very high mortality rates in most species of birds. That disease may have a severe impact on the profitability of poultry farming. (2) Since 2005, highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) viruses of the H5 subtype have been shown to be able to infect migratory birds, which can then spread these viruses over long distances during their autumn and spring migrations.
