Disseminating ESPON results goes along with several challenges with regard to scales. Especially stakeholders from the sub-national level often question the relevance of ESPON for their purposes. The aim of this project is to develop strategies to deal with the challenges of scales within the capitalisation of ESPON results. Starting point for the development of ‘scale-sensible dissemination’ are the following strategies: •‘Zooming in’ – This strategy is the most obvious strategy, but in many cases this is only possible by linking ESPON results to domestic data. •‘European Comparison’ – Comparing the local, regional or national position with a larger space is often more promising: using European averages, European trends, multinational constellations etc. offer a variety of quite ‘didactic’ approaches. •‘Bi/multi-lateral comparison’ – Comparisons on (multi-) local, regional, national level are most promising: identifying groups of areas with similar challenges or profiles can be of high interest to political decision makers. These areas can be neighbouring but also dispersed. These comparisons can both feed the debate on Territorial Cohesion (regions with particular challenges) but also help establishing groups of stakeholders with regard to Priority-2-consortiums.
