    Jaarverslag 2013 | JAARVERSLAG 2013 1 Jaarverslag 2013 Voorwoord Heemschut heeft dertien commissies, die samen het beeld van Heemschut in heel Nederland bepalen. Om dat beeld sterk en helder te maken is een coherente bestuursorganisatie nodig, waarin het hoofdkantoor een faciliterende rol speelt. Nog belangrijker is de kennis organisatie. Vrijwilligers uit de commissies doen het werk, dus onderling kennis en ervaring delen is een eerste vereiste. Het lerend vermogen moet groot zijn en dat kan alleen in een goede samenwerking tussen alle commissies. Inmiddels zijn de nieuwe kennisbijeenkomsten voor de com- missieleden al een groot succes. De deelnemers zijn kritisch, maar ook constructief en open over elkaars inbreng. Kansen zien in knelpunten, ervaringen delen, elkaar enthousiasmeren, dat is belangrijk. Er nemen ook deskundigen van buiten Heem- schut aan deel, om de vrijwilligers een bredere kijk te bieden. Wij zijn heel blij met de Young Professionals, een groep enthou- siaste jonge leden die zich nu inzetten om leeftijdsgenoten te interesseren voor het werk van Heemschut. Helaas is de ontwikkeling van het ledenaantal minder gunstig. In den lande is er zeker niet minder interesse voor het erf- goed, zoals de Open Monumentendagen bewijzen, maar het ouderwetse lidmaatschap als steun voor een organisatie lijkt 2013 was een jaar van veranderingen, ontwikkelingen en van uit de tijd te zijn. Een andere aanpak zal nodig zijn in deze enthousiaste vrijwilligers. Die vormen de kracht en de kwaliteit tijd van snelle communicatie en interactie. Want Heemschut van Heemschut: altijd in touw om ons zo diverse vaderlandse blijft nodig als pleitbezorger en hoeder van het monumentale monumentale bezit voor de toekomst te behouden.

  • RHN Twelfth Annual Conference. Evaluation of Health Policies And
    Regions for Health Network Evaluation of health policies and plans Twelfth Annual Conference Valencia, Spain, 11 November 2004 ABSTRACT Evaluations are becoming an increasingly necessary component of health policy development and planning. In the modern climate of constrained fiscal and human resources, evaluations serve as a tool to guide the development and planning of effective policies. It is crucial to know whether existing health policies and plans are indeed appropriate to match the needs of the regions, and to secure a strong evidence base on which to shape future plans. Evaluation is more essential than ever before to determine the extent to which health policies and plans have been or are likely to be successful in achieving predetermined objectives. The objectives of the conference were to promote greater awareness of the importance of evaluation; provide an overview of effective evaluation methodologies; and to engage conference participants in discussion and agreement on effective evaluation strategies related to the improvement of healthy life expectancy, health services, public engagement, and health equality.

Email: [email protected] †Business, Economy and Society, SURGE, Coventry Business School, Coventry, UK. Email: [email protected] (Received February 2012; in revised form January 2014) BAILEY D. and BERKELEY N. Regional responses to recession: the role of the West Midlands Regional Taskforce, Regional Studies. Regional taskforces were set up across the English regions in late 2008 in response to the most severe recession since the Second World War. This paper examines the role of one such body, the West Midlands Regional Taskforce, as an example of regional response to recession, and offers potential lessons for the future in dealing with such situations. In so doing it reflects on the contested concept of regional ‘resilience’ and its relevance for policy actions at the regional level. Understanding how the region responded in this way could help in maintaining a ‘permanent capacity’ to deal with shocks, especially in the context of the abolition of regional development agencies (RDAs) in England from 2012 and their replacement with local enterprise partnerships (LEPs). English regions Regional development agencies Recession responses Regional resilience Local enterprise partner- ships Localism BAILEY D. and BERKELEY N. 经济衰退的区域回应:英格兰中西部区域专门小组的角色,区域研究。2008年底,英格 兰各区域纷纷成立了区域专门小组,以因应第二次世界大战以来最为严峻的经济衰退。本文检视其中一个专门小组 的角色,即英格兰中西部区域专门小组,做为区域回应经济衰退的案例,并提供未来因应此般情势的可能经验教 训。藉此,本文考量区域“恢復力”的竞争性概念,及其之于区域层级政策行动的关联性。理解区域为何以此方式 做出回应,有助于维持应对冲击的“永久能力”,特别是在英格兰自2012年废止区域发展署(RDAs),并由地方企业 伙伴(LEPs)取代之后的脉络中。 英格兰的区域 区域发展署 回应经济衰退 区域恢復力 地方企业伙伴 在地主义 BAILEY D.
