The website describes an approach a region could take to embrace forward thinking and adaptation .  It provides a “magic box” of tools and methods to anticipate future challenges and structural changes, and to give regions better options to deal with these challenges and changes in a structured and strategic way.

You will find links to all the tools and methods gathered below in 6 separate boxes. These boxes are structured to lead the viewer through a regional development process, namely; 1) you gather information about your region, 2) you try to look into the future and anticipate challenges, 3) you transform this information into knowledge that can be presented for a wider audience, 4) you define the key competencies that the region should work with in a strategic way, 5) you move into action and delivery and 6) you evaluate the added value of the process.

The “Regional Key Competencies” website addresses politicians, policy makers, regional development actors, students and researchers who are interested in innovation, change, sustainable growth and globalisation issues, and who seek inspiration to start and manage restructuring processes.

This website is a product of the European project called “Regional Key Competencies – A Way to Manage Structural Changes”
