  • 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.

  • Difference Between Eastern and Western Polish Euroregions
    DIFFERENCE BETWEEN EASTERN AND WESTERN POLISH EUROREGIONS Jan Wendt* After the year 1998 when the world order was broke down, the modern Europe came into a new qualitatively phase of the integration processes' development. The new challenges, new communications techniques, migration processes, ideas' diffusions create more and more links between countries and local societies. The progress of cultural and economical integration is creally going into globalisation and universalisation the model of life. However, the globalisation doesn't create any efficiently working mechanism of performing law and institution order because its subjects try to - for the sake of defending own businesses - unique the instituali- sation of the authority on the above country level (Malendowski W., Szczepaniak M., 2000). Therefore, only the increase of transborder co-operation can make the authority desistance the opposition which exists in this matter (Schulc E., 1996). The euroregional co-operation, which is developed very well in UE, can lessen the distance between countries which are in UE (Malendowski W., Ratajczak M., 1998) and countries which pretend to be in there and liquidate the feeling of being in the suburban of the Western Europe. The co-operation also gives possi- bilities of knowing the rules of multilateral co-operation and democratic procedures for the post communistic societies (Bernatowicz G.; 1994). So, the co-operation should be one of the priorities for the UE candidate countries. What is more, the European Commission and its different kinds of helping programmes like PHARE help the euroregions activities. It seems that Poland is a regional leader in creating new euroregions in Central Europe.

The methodological basis of the study consists of the following approaches to the study of Euroregions: geographical, political, administrative, functional. Definitions of the Euroregion as the main form of cross-border cooperation have been determined, and institutions promoting cross- border cooperation between Ukraine and Poland have been studied. The institutional support for cross-border cooperation within the framework of the “Carpathian” and “Bug” Euroregions has been examined. Features of the Ukrainian-Polish Euroregions – “Carpathian” and “Bug” have been characterized. Problematic issues concerning the Euroregion cross-border cooperation support have been identified. Moreover, recom- mendations on improving the institutional component of the Ukrainian-Polish CBC within the “Carpathian” and the “Bug” Euroregions are given herein. Key words: institutional support, cross-border cooperation, “Carpathian,” “Bug,” Ukraine, Poland eing an element of the state policy, today, cross-border cooperation B(CBC) occupies an important place in socio-economic development priorities and European integration directions.
