OVERVIEW

Many communities are finding success cultivating a competitive advantage by using their unique assets to attract new investment and support existing businesses. These place-based assets might include residents and their skills; local architecture and infrastructure; technical, and medical institutions; local and regional business and employment concentrations; cultural, natural, and artistic resources; and general quality of life. This course aims to enhance participants understanding of how historical legacies, processes of change and structural features influence the relations between institutions and actors and, in turn, the policymaking and implementation process. Also, to examine how economic theory and rigorous evidence can be harnessed to design development policies that respond to organisations.
