Year Two


September 18-25, 2011 | Ruhr Valley, Germany and Barcelona, Spain

The second year of GMF’s Cities in Transition project (2011-12) focused on regional approaches to economic development and explored their relationship to place-based strategies – that is, strategies that capitalize on a place’s unique assets and that envision economic and community development as two parts of a single process.

From September 18-25, 2011, GMF organized a trip for 16 delegates from Flint, Detroit, Cleveland, Youngstown, Pittsburgh, HUD, and the Surdna and Kresge Foundations to the Ruhr Valley, Germany and Barcelona, Spain, each of which has developed regional approaches to economic redevelopment and linked these approaches with community and economic revitalization efforts in core cities.
