| I am pleased to invite you to attend one of our Sustainable Development workshops which will be taking place in November 2001. The purpose of the workshops is to raise awareness and to improve the quality of projects and their presentation with regard to integrating Sustainable Development, in order to achieve the strategic aim and objectives of the Structural Funds Programmes in the East of Scotland. These workshops have been part-financed by Scottish Natural Heritage (SNH) and Scottish Environment Protection Agency (SEPA). You will find attached details of the dates and venues of the six workshops which have been arranged at convenient locations throughout the East of Scotland Programme area. As you will be aware Sustainable Development is one of the two priority horizontal themes identified by the European Commission. As part of the Programme's Mainstreaming Action Plan, there is a commitment to undertake a programme of awareness raising and training workshops for project applicants. These workshops will focus on discussions of examples of live project applications, both ERDF and ESF, and recently approved projects with the aim of improving projects and their presentation in applications for financial support. As the Programme progresses, demonstrating that Sustainable Development has been effectively integrated within the project design and delivery will be central to receiving funding support. Therefore attending these workshops is essential for those submitting funding applications in future rounds. Please select which workshop you wish to attend and send the enclosed fax back, together with a copy of this letter, to Susan Tamburrini on 01383 622624. We anticipate that there will be considerable interest in these workshops and you are advised to register as early as possible. Yours sincerely GORDON McLAREN CHIEF EXECUTIVE Enc.
