A film screening - Randstad 2040 Strategic Vision

In September of 2008, the Minister of Environment and Spatial Planning presented the "Strategic Vision Randstad 2040". This new vision aims to set the conditions for the development of the Randstad in the Netherlands as a competitive and sustainable European top-region by the year 2040. In December of 2008, a two-day event was organized to review and reflect upon this strategic vision from an international perspective, titled: “International Planning Review – Randstad 2040 Strategic Vision. The outcome of this event was fruitful. The need to set up a new research agenda and bring attention to key projects was felt strongly. An emphasis was placed upon the need for an independent, inspiring third party, in order to help develop and speed-up these initiatives.
