Abstract
Result of the MSRL workshop, five research projects, reflect on a broader process of exchange of the ideas between the cities, that is occurring in the real life and became one of the driving factors of the urban development nowadays. The objective of the MSRL research - concepts, which help to advance the development of the cities, support the improvement of the quality of urban environment or meet the future challenges, can be called as “the urban innovations”1. Identifying them and effective implementation is critical for ability to attract and retain highly-qualified work force and building the quality of urban life. There are at least two factors that help to understand how such city improving concepts are “travelling” and are implemented by the cities. The first point of reference are the regional linkages and networks, which built the environment in which the innovations are exchanged. The others are the actual mechanisms of exchange via building the local capacity of the cities through learning, testing and disseminating. In all cases, the cities are the focus of the research as they play major role in being a testing ground for the new ideas. Both of them were identified by the MSRL teams and utilized in their research. In all cases, the research also demanded from the practitioners to leave their “comfort zone” and explore the concepts which are not architectural or urban design in nature but are only loosely associated with the urban phenomenon.
