Abstract
Between 2010 and 2012, I2UD contributed to a research series by ICLRD on public housing in Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland, where residents and local officials worked to improve housing and community in economically and socially segregated public housing estates.
I2UD generated regional planning profiles for six metropolitan estates in Ireland and Northern Ireland: Springfarm, Gobnascale, Carran Crescent, Cranmore, Mahon, and Adamstown. ICLRD featured these reports at its annual conference and published the profiles in the journal “Borderlands.” The Northern Ireland Housing Executive and the Housing Agency in Ireland also published the case studies. I2UD staff contributed roadmaps for developing shared services among local governments, training and education activities, and cross-border river basin research, including a comparative report on the Connecticut River Basin water quality in the northeastern United States.
Documents below begin with an Executive Summary “Shared Services Across Local Government” prepared for the Sixth Annual ICLRD Conference in January 2011, which focused on the theme of “Doing More with Less.” ICLRD contributed a detailed profile of the Basel Metropolitan Area developed in their research program on cross-border and inter-jurisdictional planning. A case study on the Boston Metropolitan Area is also included.
