El modelo Vitoria-Gasteiz de ciudad sostenible, tomado como un ejemplo

European Public Affairs en un blog en el que los estudiantes del master de European Public Affairs de la Maastricht University, escriben sus reflexiones. Patryk Szambelan, utilizando como excusa la designación de Bristol como la European Green Capital 2015, ha realizado una interesante aportación sobre el sentido que las inversiones en medio ambiente deben tener para las ciudades. Buena parte de su análisis se basa en el caso Vitoria-Gasteiz.

Previous European Green Capitals prove that green economies work and lead to better outcomes than the slash-and-burn financial management.
