EUKN 2010 Conference: Effects of demographic change on urban structures - Budapest, 13-14 September 2010

alt

The third annual EUKN conference will feed into the High-level Conference on demographic change which will be organised by the Hungarian Presidency of the European Union. EUKN's two- day conference will give an overview of the different forms of demographic change, from ageing to migration, and the effects of both shrinking and rapid growth on cities and urban regions. The conference brings together stakeholders, policy makers and experts (EU, national and regional) for an interactive exchange of strategies, experiences and hands-on knowledge. Interactive workshops and visits to projects in Budapest will give you a deeper insight in concrete instruments which might further strengthen the effectiveness of your own policy initiatives. The conference will also offer many informal opportunities for knowledge exchange and networking, including a boat tour with dinner on the Danube river.
