The activities of the Great Plain Research Department in the ESPON SEMIGRA project have been successfully completed. The research was motivated by the fact that the gendered out-migration result in a ‘deficit’ of young women in the peripheral, mostly underdeveloped rural regions of Europe. The international consortium studied the reasons for and effects of this phenomenon and the expectations of young people in 5 regions of 4 countries, as well as submitted proposals for gender-specific regional development strategies.

The objective of the project was developing historical towns to remain attractive places by preserving their heritage and improving the quality of public spaces, and meanwhile, to retain their role as regional centres, i.e. foci of economic activities, social inclusion and identity. To achieve it, the project was focused on capacity building of local governments and other stakeholders to develop good urban governance practices in planning and implementing revitalization. The Békéscsaba Department supported the transnational cooperation in the project, to facilitate the share of existing knowledge and best practices as well as to work parallel on different tasks of urban development in a higher intensity and such with a broader added value for the SEE area. The RCERS team worked on transnational knowledge management and exchange in cooperation with the researchers of the Primorska University (Koper) and of the Technical University of Kaiserslautern, moreover, with local experts of urban planning and management in 9 towns/regions within the SEE area.

The CRISKÖR project accounts and evaluates the environmental harmful human activities in 30 Romanian and Hungarian settlements affected by the Fekete and the Fehér-Körös rivers; thereby it would like to contribute to the spatial development policy, which intends to implement sustainable use of the environment and conservation actions of the region. To do this, we need to explore those social activities, which have environmental risk in the region, especially in the Körös valley. After all, with the scientific assessment of the pollutions’ levels, we are able to draw conclusions, which allow us to implement procedures aiming the reduction the effects of these activities. The main target groups were the affected population and the farmers. Finally a qualitative and quantitative assessment of polluting activities, evaluation of the environmental awareness of the population, a scientific sound impact analysis and an estimation of the potential environmental risks are the basis for the action plan, which aims to conserving the carrying capacity of the physical geographically homogenous landscape. The final documentation is available at the link below (Hungarian, 5Mb).
