The City of Sunderland is a large city on the north east coast of England. The city spans the River Wear, which winds its way to the Port of Sunderland through farmland, parks and urban communities. The purpose of the Sunderland Economic Masterplan is threefold:〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Sunderland's Economic Masterplan )〕 * to help set the direction for the city’s economy over the next 15 years, * to establish how Sunderland will earn its living over that period and what that will look like on the ground, * to set out the actions private, public and voluntary sector partners across the city need to take to ensure Sunderland has a prosperous and sustainable future. The recent UK recession has highlighted the need to create economic opportunities for the city. The reduction in public spending provides further impetus for a shift towards new forms of wealth generation. The Economic Masterplan was funded by Sunderland City Council with support from One NorthEast and delivered by a consortium of consultants led by GENECON LLP and overseen by a Steering Group. Consultation during its development has involved Councillors, citizens businesses, government agencies and local partner organisations. == Global trends == Four global trends affect the future of Sunderland. * Globalisation – accelerating the decline in traditional industries, but also fuelling the city’s recovery. Sunderland must build on local strengths and assets, including skilled labour and business expertise. * Climate change and energy generation creating costs in limiting the impact of climate change but also opportunities in developing new business and employment. * Technological change – the city must continually refresh and update its ICT infrastructure and the skills of its population to adapt to technological demands. * People and skills – there is a growing premium on talent and skills and an ageing population brings new requirements for healthcare, social care and transport. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Sunderland Economic Masterplan」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
