It focuses on metropolitan governance to show how boundaries can be overcome through cooperation. It promotes environmental awareness, attention to heritage and importance for Wrocław to become a compact city as part of the ‘new Wrocław city culture’. It discusses strategic development opportunities which could contribute to Wrocław’s new image. Wrocław is sprawling, in part due to strong urbanrural migration. However the city has a low density on average compared with other European cities with the same population. The high number of universities is a very big opportunity for the city, and its knowledge base could serve as platform for city development.enopenAccessconferenceObject260-261
