Toolkit for Designing Regional Competitiveness Agenda
Turkey, Economic Policy Research Foundation of | March 2016
Abstract
This toolkit introduces various tools that can be employed to identify regional competitiveness and areas open to development in respect of competition, and discusses the potential contribution of such tools in setting the competitiveness agenda. The primary purpose of devising this toolkit is to contribute to individuating the regional competitiveness agendas by region, distinguishing one from another, and relying on hard data to the extent possible. It is aimed to support those institutions in our country, including mainly development agencies, which engage in regional analyses such that they will go beyond mere statistical presentations and undertake specific analyses. This toolkit may make it possible to respond to various needs of analysis arising from regional disparities and diversify the analytical sets of institutions. Particularly, an increase in the quality of sectoral and thematic information compiled at regional level may improve the quality of both regional plans and subsequent regional programmes.
