European Spatial Development Perspective (ESDP)

The European Spatial Development Perspective (ESDP) is a strategic plan adopted by European countries to manage the balanced growth and development of the continent. It aims to promote sustainable use of land, improve infrastructure, reduce regional disparities, and support environmentally friendly development. By coordinating policies across regions, the ESDP seeks to create cohesive, efficient, and accessible urban and rural areas, ensuring that economic growth, environmental protection, and social well-being are integrated for the benefit of all European citizens.
