2 Integration in the programme Multi level approach. City region level and neighbourhood level Pathways had pproximately 15% of programme spend ( 160m of EU funds) Covering up to 35% of the programme area population A single twin pathways measure with ESF and ERDF financed elements Concept of programme bending to align ERDF investment with disadvantaged neighbourhoods with ESF support for people in areass so that jobs in new investment areas could be captured by people from pathways areas 5 Local authorities set up structures to support pathways and voluntary sector sets up single structure for city region
3 Selecting the areas Programme document specified maximum population coverage of 35% Mapping of composite census variable of deprivation Redrawing of map with local authorities Some areas already neighbourhood renewal areas under UK programmes (City Challege, Single Regeneration Budget), Some completely new areas Wide variation in population size (10,000 to 500) Small areas had viability problems
4 Merseyside Pathways areas, Neighbourhood renewal and and Joblink Network
5 Merseyside: the Action Plan Process 1994 Programme signed by Commissioner Bruce Millan 1994 Discussions about designation of 38 areas using basic statistical data from Index of Deprivation and map showing opportunity areas 1995 Approval of area designation 1995 First Pathways strategies and action plans approved by Programme Monitoring Committee 1995 First pathways projects approved 1996 Pathways areas host Monitoring Committee members in their neighbourhoods 1996 Two pathways representatives appointed to Programme Monitoring Committee 1996 Pathways areas win right to co-appraise ESF projects targeted on their neighbourhoods by training providers and colleges By 1997 the number of project sponsors had reached 900 a dramatic increase compared to previous programmes
6 Empowerment of pathways communities considerable engagement, participation of local partnerships in prioritisation of ESF projects targeting local areas, local demand side measures for entrepreneurship Representation on Programme Monitoring Committee (2 representatives rising to 6 in second programme Alterations to selection criteria to prioritise those investments that could link to pathways areas Capacity building actions supported for the first time in a UK programme Supply side training measures linked to major investments targeting pathways areas (e.g. JET centres in Liverpool s Speke Garston major development)
7 Annual Reports on progress on indicators covering seven areas 1. Deprivation and Benefits claims 2. Income Support 3. Unemployment 4. Household Income 5. Educational Attainment 6. Crime 7. Health
8 Crime comparisons pathways and non pathways
9 Unemployment claimant count pathways 2007
10 Second generation action plans building on pathways plans
11 URBACT LOCAL ACTION PLANS
12 The URBACT Programme 44 projects 70 Million over 7 years An exchange, learning and action programme Speeding up the transfer of social innovations across European cities The average network has 10 cities, working groups have Active Cities (200 are in two projects) 5000 members of Local Support groups working in the cities RegGov Cluster 1 I Meeting 2 I Ruda Slaska I May 2010 I Petra Potz, Lead Expert

14 Innovative features of URBACT 2 A development phase lasting 6 months Dedicated expertise support through the lifetime of the project Local Support Groups made up of key stakeholders in each city working together More than 400 Local Action Plan as the final outputs 4 Poles and 9 clouds distilling thematic knowledge for other cities
15 Local support groups Involving all the key actors that work on the network problematic. Public and private sector, civil society Usually brought together by the municipality Contributes towards the city profile in the baseline study Works on the problem analysis Puts together the local action plan Minimal resources of 7000 per group 2 years to do the work 3 Key questions How to form a good action plan that responds to needs identified in indicators? How to avoid the Local Action Plan becoming a shopping list? How to make sure it is implemented?

18 The LAP should Provide the city with a concrete roadmap and range of solutions to tackle the problem identified at the start of the Network (in relation with the core theme); Be drawn up in close cooperation with the Managing authorities so that the opportunity for funding through the operational programmes be maximised. (for fast track networks) (Programme Manual, Fact sheet 2b)
19 Key Steps Step 1 Building the evidence base Step 2 Stakeholder analysis Step 3 Problem and option analysis Step 4 Strategy formulation Step 5 Intervention logic going from goals to activities Step 6 Adding indicators, setting targets and working out means of verification Step 7 Risks and assumptions Step 8 Bringing it all together and achieving coherence by using an adapted logical framework Step 9 Final consultation on draft plan Step 9 Formal signing of the Local Action Plan by all the partners

34 Lessons on action planning Indicators are important but learning through action is critical Capacity needs to be built at local level It takes time to develop an action plan Tendence to go back to usual solutions Danger of powerful partners dominating Better methods are needed at local level (and all levels!) participative approaches economic and social literacy high quality interactive meetings new tools and methods knowledge and experience of how to use them Animators are needed to make it all happen Action planning must be resourced adequately
