On 3 December, Douglas Yuill and Martin Ferry were in Warsaw to make invited presentations to Polish policymakers on recent regional policy developments across Europe.
Douglas Yuill focused on recent changes in national regional policies while Martin Ferry concentrated on the new directions being taken by EU Cohesion policy. The two presentations were based on research papers produced for EPRC's EoRPA consortium.
The meeting was arranged by the Ministry of Regional Development in Poland and was attended by over 60 policymakers from the Ministry and the Polish regions as well as academics.
