摘要:Urban regions are the driving forces of Europe’s economic development, they are centres of creativity and
innovation and also, they are the factor of the achievement of “Europe 2020” strategy. During 2014 – 2020
programming period, urban dimension was at the centre of Cohesion Policy. New European Union’s (E.U.) policy
seeks to cultivate complete urban policies that enhance Sustainable Urban Development (S.U.D.) in order to
enhance cities’ ability of adjustment and ensure investments.
According to Partnership Agreement (P.A.) 2014 – 2020, S.U.D. is a new tool for territorial development which
aims to provide a way out of the social, economic and environmental problems of the degraded urban regions and
an alternative answer to the consequences of crisis. S.U.D. may be implemented either through Integrated
Territorial Investments (I.T.I.) or through local development after initiative of local communities.
I.T.I.s are the tool for planning and implementation of complete territorial strategies and they may be financed from
European Social Fund (E.S.F.), European Regional Development Fund (E.R.D.F.) and Cohesion Fund. The
competent bodies that take over the preparation and implementation of I.T.I. are the managing authorities, urban
authorities, intermediate bodies, and the Strategic Planning and Evaluation Special Service.
This Study analyses the current situation of Piraeus municipality and I.T.I.s’ strategy for S.U.D. that will be
implemented in the municipality. Piraeus municipality is the greatest industrial centre in Greece and it has the
largest port in Europe. However local authorities so far have not managed to highlight and exploit the comparative
advantages available to the municipality. I.T.I.s aim to enhance entrepreneurship and social cohesion, improve
financial situation and protect the already burdened environment.
The statistical survey was based on the construction of a questionnaire addressed to 116 employees of the
municipality of Piraeus. The correlation between the S.U.D. of Piraeus municipality and the socio-demographic
factors was investigated through multi-factorial linear regression models, checking for possible confusing factors.
