EDEN – E-DATABASE EMPOWERING NETWORKS
|
INTRODUCTION
In 2012, several institutions participated to a research survey launched by the Committee on Local and Regional Democracy (CDLR) of the Council of Europe in preparation of the conference on “Removing Obstacles and Promoting Good Practices on Cross-border Cooperation”. In 2014, a follow-up questionnaire was diffused and its results, along with the ones of the first survey, led to the implementation of EDEN - E-DATABASE EMPOWERING NETWORK, an online toolkit for Cross-Border Cooperation elaborated by the Council of Europe and available on the website http://cbc.isig.it.
New case studies are regularly collected. As per today, in 2020, the EDEN database contains more than 650 case studies and 60 contributors.
EDEN is constantly striving for an advanced user-friendly experience which increases search functionalities and interoperability between case studies and contributors.
The Council of Europe is now expanding and updating EDEN aiming to offer CBC stakeholders, practitioners and experts the largest European database and sharing platform on CBC.
It is in this spirit that we kindly ask you to answer this questionnaire in all its sections. In order to do so, you might find useful to consult the Cross-border Co-operation toolkit prepared by Centre of Expertise for Local Government Reform.
