Uruguay Projects Fair - 16-18 November 2010 - 17-11-10

From 16 to 18 November, the Uruguay Integra Programme organises the Uruguay Projects Fair in Montevideo, Uruguay. During the event, departments and municipalities will engage in a direct dialogue with national ministries. Innovative experiences within social and territorial cohesion will be shared. Additionally, departmental development projects on local economic development, social cohesion, regional cooperation, decentralisation and citizens’ participation will be presented. 

VNG International leads the international technical assistance team of the Uruguay Integra Programme, in consortium with Ecorys, Ideaborn and Cotecno. Objective of the programme is to increase the level of social and territorial cohesion in Uruguay: improve the levels of local sustainable, economic and social development, at a local and regional level, and strengthen the competitiveness of the territories, by guiding joined actions of local governmental departments (Intendencias) and the local stakeholders, within the framework of development, social and economic politics, and the decentralization strategy as determined by the national government.
