Descrizione

This book is a deliverable of C27 Cost Action "Sustainable Development Policies for Minor Deprived Urban Communities". The Action tackles the problem of minor deprived communities’ protection and rehabilitation and is geared to sustainable development. The main objective of the Action is to explore, assess and improve the different policy options geared to sustainable development that are open to small deprived communities. This book has been published with the contribution of COST, which is an intergovernmental framework for European Cooperation in Science and Technology, allowing the coordination of nationally-funded research on a European level. The goal of COST is to ensure that Europe holds a strong position in the field of scientific and technical research for peaceful purposes, by increasing European cooperation and interaction in this field. This research initiative makes it possible for the various national facilities, institutes, universities and private industry to work jointly on a wide range of Research and Development (R&D) activities. The contents were discussed during the following three meetings organized by COST C27 Action "Sustainable Development Policies for Minor Deprived Urban Communities" in Prague, Sundsvall and Brescia. The contributions underwent a peer review procedure by the Management Committee of the COST C27 Action.
