André Torre (Université Paris – Saclay and INRAE) has been awarded the Scholar Prize for the quality of his research on territorial development, on the mechanisms of cooperation and conflict between actors that generate innovation, on the governance of development processes in both rural and urban areas. The Commission appreciated the ability to create a bridge between the dynamics of economic development and spatial planning, but also the ability to mobilise international scholars and researchers… as well as the attention to bringing the research world and the institutional one into dialogue. https://ersa.org/2024/06/06/2023-international-award-on-local-territorial-development/
