Building further on the outcome of the Professional Training Seminar on governance, design and infrastructure for knowledge based cities that took place in Hsinchu in April, this Roundtable will explore the future agenda for metropolitan regions and reviews how future industries will shape the urban environment.

The roundtable will bring together 15 international and Taiwanese experienced policy- makers, business leaders and urban actors to sharpen our understanding on how to balance development over metropolitan areas and how networks of territories can be more efficient and productive.

Message from INTA's president

Budiarsa SastrawinataI am pleased to introduce you to INTA’s new image and brand new website. The new INTA site will offer members access to a growing collection of information on emerging trends in urban and regional development. You will learn how INTA’s upcoming activities facilitate networking and information sharing and how they bring complementary cases together to learn from each other on generalized urban processes. We hope this website will convince you to join us and contribute to the discussions on factors that shape the future of urban development. I thank you for your interest and look forward to everyone’s participation.

INTA President, Budiarsa Sastrawinata

The Caribbean Region in Colombia

altAfter the Panel in Bogotá-Cundinamarca, the INTA-UNCRD advisory panel continued to the Colombian Caribbean Region, where eight departments have recently developed initiatives to become a single administrative region to integrate development projects. The Panel seeked to strengthen the development process of the Caribbean Region and supported the development of the Caribbean Regional Corridor. The corridor is currently considered the project that can promote a more balanced, equitable and sustainable development, and serve as an integrator of all the Colombian Caribbean Region. The Panel helped define an effective chart, in order to progress the development of a Regional Corridor Strategic Plan as the basis for the development of the region and a regional urban system.

24-30 April 2010 Cáceres, Spain

View on Ribera del Marco

Cáceres, the most intact medieval quarter of any Spanish city, has been growing on the west part of its territory turning his back to the walls of the City. The recent archaeological interpretation of the fortress, the rediscovery of the old well, and the reactivation of the Silver Trail create an opportunity to revitalize the land on either sides of the creek “Ribera de Marco” finding inspiration in history and in the City identity.

The City Council of Cáceres has invited an INTA Advisory Panel to evaluate and debate on the project of the "Ribera de Marco" area which is part of the strategic development of the City through the definition of the Innovative and Creative Urban Strategic Plan.

A team of 10 international practitionners will focus on the feasibility and the implementation of the project which can be a link between the North and the South of the City (University site on one end and future innovation park close to the old mining town on the other end, that is linking past to future, tradition to innovation, culture to nature) giving territorial coherence  and enhancing the potential of renewal regeneration.
