摘要
This article presents a synopsis of innovative actions towards sustainable development in European cities. It draws many examples from a European overview of Urban Innovations, the major part of an action-oriented research programme on Urban Innovations in the European Union. The programme has been introduced and managed by the author at the European Foundation for the Improvement of Living and Working Conditions (a EU Agency based in Dublin), and includes the identification and description of implemented innovative urban projects conducive to sustainability with economic, socio-political and environmental dimensions. After one year of work with OECD, V. Mega revisits European urban innovations. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
