In this webinar, we discuss the basic economic concepts in regional economics and the path to the development of the Economic Impact Assessment Tool; a tool developed within CUTLER to support the full lifecycle of policy design. Moreover, we discuss tailored made solutions to address specific issues raised by city-pilots. The focus of the analysis will be on describing the basic functionality of the regional economy and the various issues raised during the program, in a descriptive but yet simple manner, avoiding tedious economic terminology and complicated methodological aspects of the analytical tools. A hands-on presentation on analytical tools with examples and case studies provides a comprehensible understanding in the use of the aforementioned tools, destined to train the end-user at the municipal level who is to benefit from the use of the analytical arsenal. Special issues described in the updated analytical framework as the administration of the Duden Waterfalls site in Antalya, operational handling of the parking system and the Sea Transportation System in Thessaloniki, forecasts on the expected number of tourists and cash-flow analysis for the Camden Fort Meagher in Cork, and analysis on the effects of flooding in Antwerp will also be covered. The endpoint of this webinar is not to educate on economics and methodological aspects, but to provide practical guidelines and helpful insights that will assist the day-to-day use of the analytical tools and hence the decision-making process of the city-pilots.
