Abstract

Combining diverse material gathered from the analysis of the Swiss policy context and the exploration of the 12 Swiss AAs, this separate report is aimed at providing a comprehensive view on the Swiss experience with soft territorial cooperation. Chapter 2 introduces the policy context relevant for the analysis of the Swiss AAs. Chapter 3 presents the different supra-regional collaborations taking place on Action Area level, framing them in their territorial context, and proposes an analytical grid to analysing them. Chapter 4 synthetises results obtained from the analysis of the 12 Swiss AAs, classifying them based on their maturity of cooperation and summarises policy options as expressed by field actors. Chapter 5 is set up as an Atlas, offering in-depth presentation of the 12 Swiss AAs.
