Institute for Spatial Policies, IPoP was established eighteen years ago. What started as a small association, has become the leading (and most fun to work with) national non-profit non-governmental consultancy and research organisation working across scales in the fields of community development and sustainable urban development. IPoP has been also granted the status of a non-governmental organisation in the field of environmental protection, and spatial planning and management, working in the public interest.

IPoP and CASIE will work together in the final stage of the research project in 2026, developing policy recommendations, promoting communication, dissemination and exploitation of the research outcomes, transferring them from academia to communities, civil society and local government. 

Happy birthday, IPoP!
