> 2nd Newsletter of IULA'99 Virtual Congress
> -------------------------------------------
> In the last newsletter, we informed you about the opened forums of each
> thematic area. Since then, new contributions and also papers have arrived to
> the forums. These papers open new issues for debating and, with no doubt,
> enrich the forums. We should not forget that the IULA Conference will begin
> in four weeks!
> Before starting with the new issues of each thematic area (Local democracy,
> Sustainability and Local Agenda 21 and Social cohesion), it's good to remind
> the main objective of the Virtual Congress. This is to open a debate, as
> wider as possible, among people and social sectors related with each of the
> items through contributions, opinions, experiences, publications, best
> practices, etc. A virtual library about local government can be also
> consulted. You can find us in:
> http://www.iulabcn.org.
> Another important previous question is that the register form has been
> changed to promote participation in the forums. With this modification the
> initial identification is not needed and you just have to identify yourself
> with your name and e-mail when you do a contribution to a forum.
> We are waiting for your participation!

> Sustainability and Local Agenda 21

> These are the new issues of the thematic area Sustainability and Local

> * Local Agenda 21. You'll find interesting documents for discussion about
> the sustainable urban development in Latin-American cities (in Spanish) and
> the United Nations' Program about Cities for Climate Protection. This is the
> most dynamic forum; you can find interventions and news related to
> experiences at different levels which have taken place in the local world:
> co-operation among cities, sustainable tourism, energy efficient management
> and citizen participation process' among others.
> * Urban vehicles. More efficient and less polluting cars are already a
> reality? In this forum you'll find documents referring the Brazilian Policy
> of Alcohol as a fuel and documents about hybrid vehicles in Sweden
> * Telematics and clean technologies. A discussion forum about the possible
> effects of Internet on urban mobility is going on. You'll find also
> documents related to experiences with local telematic information networks
> in Italy.
> * The urban-rural dynamics. In this forum you can find the paper Local
> Authorities, food commercialisation and the cities' future (only in Spanish)
> by Olivio Argenti (Co-ordinator of the FAO's interregional program about
> Food management and distribution in cities), who will participate as a
> speaker in the IULA'99Congress.

> Social Cohesion

> Opened fora and the themes that are being discussed are as follows:
> * Tackling crime for successful cities. Mr. Jordi Borja's paper can be
> consulted in this forum. In the paper, Borja explains that there is an
> ambiguity concerning crime prevention: on the one hand, it is a right which
> can not be denied to anyone, and, on the other hand, some planing policies
> play against the effective promotion of security. The negative effects of
> the traditional prevention policies should be added to the effects of city
> planing. Mr. Jordi Borja, acknowledging some positive results of these
> traditional crime prevention policies, bets for a more integrated approach
> with planing policies. This new approach ought to revitalise the public
> places as a meeting point of the different local communities. Hence,
> communication and solidarity would be enhanced. Apart from this paper, it
> can be found some other contributions asking for ideas to help them to
> improve the prevention of crime in their localities.
> * Local government: working for older persons and young people. The
> contribution of the Building and Social Housing Foundation is important.
> This Foundation held a seminar on new ideas and attitudes to housing for
> older people, last April. An extract of the main conclusions achieved can be
> consulted. The conclusions highlight the need for a more integrated approach
> among the different stakeholders working on ageing policies. Besides, in
> this forum it is asked whether Barcelona's model of Social Services can be
> exported to other cities or not.
> * Promoting local employment. This is the most dynamic forum of the Social
> Cohesion and Participation Area. Two interesting papers can be read. The
> first paper is written by Mr. Micahel Cohen, and he highlights the
> importance of the 'soft factors' in building a coalition for the promotion
> of the local economy. The second one belongs to the Mayor of Porto Alegre
> (Mr. Raul Pont) and emphasises the chance of citizens to have an important
> role in promoting the local economy and employment through the participatory
> budgeting.
> * A city for all. Participation. In this forum it can be found as well the
> paper of Mr. Raul Pont, Mayor of Porto Alegre, because he emphasises the
> need for understanding citizen participation as a key element of local
> economy policies. Besides, there are more contributions challenging the
> assumption that Internet can enhance citizen participation.
> * A city for all. Intercultural dialogue. The main topic addressed in this
> forum is whether we should talk in terms of multiculturality terms or in
> terms of interculturality. What is being debated is the nature of the city
> and the impacts of the city as a place open to every body, or not. The
> issues is opened for discussion.
