GreenHealth 3rd Interregional Learning event in Poland

NWRA Staff and Stakeholders attend GreenHealth Project Interregional Learning event in the Podkarpackie Region of Poland

Eiméar Dowd (Regional Development Manager) and Declan Meehan (Senior Planner) were the NWRA representatives who attended the 3rd Interregional Learning event of the Interreg Europe GREENHEALTH project in the Podkarpackie Region in Poland last week. Amongst the Irish delegation were Emma O’Hagan, Rural Recreation Officer from County Leitrim, and Sinead McDermott, Tourism Officer with Leitrim County Council. At this project event, partners presented local examples and shared experiences about how to improve accessibility and inclusion when encouraging activities in the outdoors and the enjoyment and protection of natural amenities.

The Irish delegation showcased their Good Practice example at the event and presented on the recent First National Trails Conference held in Carrick on Shannon from 31 Aug – 2 Sep. This was chosen as a unique example of bringing stakeholders together to discuss how to improve trail maintenance, education, and community inclusion through outdoor activities.

During the event, the Polish hosts, the Office of the Podkarpackie Region, invited the partners to visit the PANS Herbalism Department at the State Academy of Applied Sciences in Krosno, after which the study visit continued in the Forestry Promotion Centre in Muczne and the Bieszczady National Park. The workshop elements of the event were coordinated by the EUROPARC Federation and addressed the topic of ‘Sustainable Inclusiveness’ and integrated elements of the Healthy Parks Healthy People Toolkit.

The overarching aim of the GREENHEALTH project is to make EU regions more resilient and to restore bio-diversity in natural spaces by improving the management of European Protected Areas. The aim is to focus on strengthening links and strategic & operational collaboration between actors working on biodiversity protection and those involved in promoting human health & well-being. Fundamentally, this project centres on the recognition that protected Areas in EU are a key tool, not only for the preservation of nature & biodiversity conservation but also for the provision of multiple benefits in the ecosystem of public services.

EU in my Region: LOTTI project brings European Stakeholders to Galway

  • Galway to host international project partners as part of an EU Project 
  • The Interreg Europe funded LOTTI Project supports innovative industrial regeneration rooted in local identity
  • Irish partners WestBIC and NWRA will showcase Good Practice examples around Galway City and County

Northern and Western Regional Assembly and WestBIC are excited to welcome a group of LOTTI Project Partners and Stakeholders for an upcoming Interregional Learning  event held in Galway, Ireland, on 25-26 September 2024 (LOTTI stands for LOcal identity driving Traditional Industry Transition).

Over the course of two days, the project partners from Finland, Spain, Poland, Ireland, France, Italy will be visiting key locations including Platform94, Údarás na Gaeltachta, PorterShed and the BIA Innovator Campus in Athenry. Discussions will focus on exchanging good practices, building capacity, and exploring policy insights to drive the transition from traditional to innovative industrial and promote economic regeneration.

Attendees will participate in study visits to innovation hubs that foster industrial innovations and entrepreneurship like Platform94 and the BIA Innovator Campus, with additional presentations from Bord na Móna on sustainability and innovation. This event offers a fantastic opportunity for collaboration and learning between EU regions which is a central element of all Interreg Europe funded projects.

The LOTTI initiative in particular, brings together 10 partners (five regional managing authorities, three regional agencies, and two discovery partners) that share a common objective of supporting regional policy design and implementation that promotes successful transitions away from declining industries towards newer, more innovative directions in keeping with local identity.

Each region represented by the partners in the project is navigating a significant transition. They are moving from traditional manufacturing and economic structures, which have historically been central to their cultural identities, to new models that integrate modern industrial, digital, and environmental advancements. This transformation is crucial for adapting to the evolving economic landscape while preserving the local identities that resonate deeply with the population, emphasizing a place-based approach to regional development.
